Stockwell's work is mainly concerned with transforming found, everyday domestic and industrial items into art objects.

In her use of maps she is not only interested in their aesthetic qualities, she is also highly conscious of the tensions that are linked to them. Within the decorative patchwork of Imperial Quilt un-natural borders have been created, countries with uneasy social and political relationships have literally been stitched together.
