Vicki Mason is interested in the potential for botanical imagery to represent notions of place, belonging and the life cycle. She uses plants as metaphors to represent these ideas, basing her contemporary designs on forms sourced from native and exotic species, as well as plant forms found in fine/decorative arts and used in local gardens.
Cross media and material discourses inform her practice, and she often combines slow tech domestic craft processes with industrial techniques, in order to challenge traditional orthodoxies surrounding craft making.
Originally from New Zealand, Vicki now lives and works in Melbourne, Australia.
