About

I am an Australian artist based in Lancaster, The United Kingdom. After completing my MFA at The College of Fine Arts, University of New South Wales in 2002, I moved to the UK. I have had successful solo and group exhibitions in Sydney and the UK. I am primarily a painter but I also work with sculpture, photography, animation, film, and performance to realise my ideas. At the heart of all my work is an interest in perception; how we see and what we see and I go to time consuming lengths to create work and installations that draw people in, encourage them to look closely, elongates their sense of time.  I align myself with the slow art movement ,utilising repetition and fine detail as a way of resisting the status quo, of making visible the labour and hand made quality of art and countering the status quo which favours novelty, brand definition, constant production and sensationalism.
