Hi, I'm a visual artist working in photography -digital and darkroom, mostly darkroom, sculpture (found objects), acrylics and pastels. In my work I'm looking at identity, our relationship to the planet, the landscape as a metaphor for our future. I'm moved by the horrors of war, the devastation we wreck on each other and the land. I am challenged to make work about peace and beauty.

I've been taking photos since I was about 10, with my dad's old Luxor fully manual 35mm. My first camera after that (age 20) was a Nikon FG20 35mm, which I still use. I began using digital cameras 12 years ago, for documentation mostly. I'm now working with a Nikon D200, acquired a Mamiya RB67 Pro S medium format monster.

I have begun a long-term collaboration with Patrice Muttaymiles Mahoney this year, continuing my exploration of contemporary white identity in the context of Indigenous Australian experience. The collaboration produced it’s first outcomes in Feb - May 2011, culminating in an interactive installation -“emanate” - as part of the Creative Gippsland Festival, shown at Archie’s On The Creek, South Gippsland, in May & June 2011.

In June & July 2011 I exhibited with 3 other artists in “Mindful Things” at La Trobe Regional Gallery, Morwell.

I am woking in Artist Prints as the exploration continues!
