VISIONS + HEART









          







  



                  based in naarm My multidisciplinary practice is a mode of documenting and translating my emotions or thought experiences into the material. This often results in romantic abstractionist installations, sculptures, or paintings; my presence as an artist evoked in passionate texture, vivid colour, erratic text, or atmospheric light. My practice utilises found objects, reflecting a personal sentiment about the perpetuity of change (and how love propels it,) and climate collapse.

I want you to feel


My practice considers the importance of comprehensive storytelling. To find significance in every element. Curation as a skill and applying it to the self as a discipline. The joys of collaboration. Honesty as true vulnerability. The most mundane and simple things can be moving, interesting, alluring, and truthful. 

I’ve personally learned that my work can communicate and reveal messages to me during the process of their creation. That they can deliver a lesson/emotion/experience to me rather than only being a vessel for myself to others. They are in control of their becoming.

I have exhibited in Melbourne’s most notable art institutions - Brunswick Street Gallery, RED Gallery, fortyfivedownstairs -  as well as small independent shows.
I have styled and assisted for Melbourne Fashion Week, RMIT marketing, local designers, or homegrown shows like SKANT.
