From a childhood in Warrnambool on the Shipwreck Coast to East Gippsland an abundant aquatic place of ocean, lakes, wetlands, rivers and native forest - rich in biodiversity.
As a child I was taught to “make and mend it ”. This was further enhanced while working on festivals and events where the need to improvise and use what was at hand important.
This has instilled a resourcefulness and resilience in my art practice and has provided me with a clear vision to conserve our natural world.
I use salvaged materials in my sculpture of which most materials are saved from landfill, a process I started during my Post Graduated degree in Sculpture.
My Sculpture has focused more and more on recycling materials.
