WHEN YOU ARE LOST YOU ARE NOT ALONE
The human condition is one of contrasts.
Our lives are sometimes marked by extreme highs and desperate lows. For all the joys and pleasures we experience, there are dark places also and our challenge is to embrace all of the above as part of a seamless whole.
To genuinely engage with life demands that we accept all it presents us - regardless. All the beauty and sadness. All the shiny, loving faces and the dull, unforgiving looks alike are ours to own.
Everything.
The condition of being human is a state of constant change and we must make that change into a stairway by which to climb further. Together.

There's an ancient belief that when all those living have forgotten us after we die, even our soul disappears and we die a second time - forever.

Dorrigo, NSW 2016
Hope is that part of us that doesn’t understand, but still tries. The part that is crippled but still wants of run. The part that is alone but dreams of being held.
Artist Statement (Revised to Support Series):
“Loaded Silence”
Suspended mid-air, the dice represent our daily rituals of risk — choices unseen, outcomes unknown. They hang in the void of decision-making, where the illusion of chance masks deeper design. Loaded Silence is part of an exploration on agency, systems, and the invisible weights behind every ‘random’ roll.

Artist Statement:
Some wounds don’t take...they transform.
This piece captures the instant after external judgment has been internalized not as shame, but as momentum. The Lamb doesn’t wear the red with regret. He wears it like a crown.
The mark on the mask, for me, represents the moment when a label becomes a weapon, and a victim becomes sovereign. He’s not walking away. He’s walking forward—toward you.

Artist Statement:
“The Last Offering”
A table set for many, attended by one. The Last Offering explores the weight of legacy, isolation, and power through ritualistic minimalism. Each red plate is a silent witness. The man — priest, survivor, or tyrant — stands not at the head of the table, but at its vanishing point, where intention and history collapse into silence.

Artist Statement:
"Probability Mask"
What are the odds of becoming who you are? In this visual metaphor, identity is a game of chance — a rolling mask of outcomes. The die-faced figure looks toward a sliver of illumination, suggesting that even in randomness, we crave meaning. "Probability Mask" explores agency, determinism, and the roles we inherit or manufacture under pressure.
