2025 Finalist in the Australian Wearable Art Festival, Sunshine Coast

Puggle explores identity through repetition and resilience. Jeanette Stok reimagines embroidery using industrial materials—plastic gutter guard and garden tie—layered into sculptural textures inspired by echidna quills. Reclaiming waste from her past works, this piece is both personal and primal, where adaptation meets aesthetics in a bold, avant-garde expression.
