"Mothercake" reflects the translation from Sam's mother tongue of the word Mutterkuchen, meaning placenta. This biological metaphor and often unacknowledged organ has become central to her artistic practice. Through her work, Sam explores the overlooked connections between self and other, investigating both physical and philosophical boundaries. Her drawings and paintings emerge from a deeply physical process, creating conversations between inner and outer worlds - evoking new organic body forms that exist somewhere between figuration and abstraction.

Sam completed her Post-graduate Diploma at the Dunedin School of Art this year having originally studied Fine Art and Contemporary Critical Theory at Goldsmiths College in London in the mid 90's. She has returned to her art practice with gusto in the last few years, finding ways to readdress and recalibrate the balance between finding meaning from the making and making from the meaning.
