FLUX- First Site Gallery RMIT 2009

 My series of layered digital and collaged images explore an interest in the cycles of growth and decay; solidity and fragmentation, found within the natural world. My interest in the cycles of change and continuity, growth and disintegration indicate an interest in motion and a deep sense that nothing is static, that all is dynamic and in a state of flux.

Sample/Together (Action Sample) Platform Contemporary Art Space, Cambell Arcade, Melbourne

Sample/Together  combines diagrams, textile and paper craft processes with new and recycled materials to create a collection of interrelated samples or ‘one offs’.    These interrelated drawings and forms, reference collage, and the assembling and juxtaposing of sample against sample, to create endlessly flexible wholes.
