Group shows | Articulate

Opens on Mar 9 until Mar 31, 2024

I live and work in Sydney on Gadigal land. I worked as a volunteer at Factory 49 from 2015 -2017 and my first solo exhibition Fantastic Plastik was held there in 2016. I am grateful for the experience and skills I gained working as a volunteer and as a result enjoy the wonderful diverse artistic community I am part of. I have continued my practice working with the material (PMM) as it offers a unique surface that cannot be replicated . The colour and visceral nature of the material enhances the haptic sensation in the viewer.

I completed MFA at National Art School in 2017 and am currently represented by M Contemporary Gallery, Sydney. I exhibited at the XIV Florence Biennale , Italy in 2023, Brick Lane gallery, London 2023 and have a solo exhibition in Milan 2024.
For the past 9 years I have negotiated access to an industrial factory in Sydney, Australia where I make the work. The material is heated in large furnaces and then moulded by hand. Importantly each piece is individually made, by me, without prefabricated forms.
