VISIONS + HEART









          







  

                  me at home


                  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 self-portraits; my presence as an artist invoked 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 for 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. That growth is exponential and constant if you want it to be; it takes time, but you’ll be able to see it between works and outdo yourself, while past versions/works still hold up to time. To see in colour. Age fixation.

I’ve personally learned that my practice and pieces can reveal something to me during the process of their creation. That they can deliver a message/emotion/experience to me rather than being the vessel for me to deliver one. In control of their becoming.

I have exhibited in gallery shows, styled for runways, and have been published in magazines.
