Large-scale clay sculpture and printmaking has become the focus of her work.

The clay works are hand-built of earthenware paper clay and multi-fired to achieve a complex patina of surfaces. The monoprints are printed from plates made of stitched industrial grade roofing copper incorporating embossed relief.

Her work was recently included in the Toronto International Art Fair 2013 & 2014 with Sandra Ainsley Gallery, accepted to the Korean Biennale 2015 & Taiwan Biennale 2012, International Triennial of Silicate Arts, Kecskemet, Hungary 2011, Sevres Porcelain Museum, Paris, 2010, and an honourable mention at the CEBIKO International Ceramics Biennale in Korea 2009. She has exhibited at SOFA Chicago & New York, Palm Beach and the Toronto International Art Fair.

State University, Long Beach among others. Her work has appeared in Ceramic Review, Ceramic Art & Perception, Ceramics Technical, Canadian Art and various catalogues and publications.

“..just as you’ve decided the material is essentially an earthy colourlessness everywhere, you see that it actually teems with colour, sparkles and scintillates with it, but not in a winningly decorative way. The colour is a sort of rare treat— like the rainbow iridescence that shimmers atop an oil spill, or on the belly of a fish. By which I mean that Collett’s colour is and is not immediately discernable, and seems to depend on where you stand and when and at what angle you peer into the oatmeal depths of these mighty yet fragile, basket-like vessels.”
Gary Michael Dault, Toronto

“…luminescent ceramic vessels so delicate they seem fragile. yet rooted-an aesthetic contradiction that expresses the dualities of light and form, strength & fragility.”
Elena Lee, Galerie Elena Lee, Montreal
