I was born, raised and remain in the small community of Cobargo,
Yuin Country, on the Far South Coast of NSW.

I am an artist with a mixed-discipline creative practice. With a background in the traditional crafts of calligraphy and book arts, I have an enduring interest in language, text and book forms, but my process-oriented arts practice has evolved to include photography, video, sculpture and installation. I work primarily with salvaged books and the book form exploring ideas about knowledge and place, self, site and sustainability.

On New Year’s Eve 2019 my community was devastated by the
Badja Forest Rd firestorm. I am currently preparing to commence a PhD where I will use practice-based-research to examine the capacity of creative practices to assist with community recovery and resilience building in the aftermath of trauma.
