The interconnected ecologies of people and place, nature and spirit of the land has been the cornerstone of my artist-residencies and arts curation work.
Art making has taken me to many parts of the world. My own rt is held in various private and public collections to include; Queensland Health, OzCare Australia, Queensland State Library and the Redland Art Gallery Collection.
In pursuit of art making and curating, I have worked in collaboration with a wide range of entities on Minjerriba, (North Stradbroke Island) to include Moreton Bay Research Station, University of Queensland, Quandamooka Festival, North Stradbroke Island Museum on Minjerribah, environmental organisations, Government and non-Government agencies and communities in my time since 2000.
Leveraging an academic and research background in curating ecological art and a track record of nature inspired interdisciplinary exhibitions, installations, public events and retreats, place-based research and participatory processes are at the core of my practice.
It is good to connect!
