Artist Statement
My work focuses on the unique beauty and sensuality of
seclusion plus the search for a sense of purpose and place
sometimes
aggressive and disturbing, other times finding proximity and intimacy, yet
often discovering the tranquility in separation and detachment.
Biography
Born and raised in Australia, I came to photography as a
way of conveying my isolation while traveling, using the camera as a way to
articulate the overwhelming sense of loneliness I encountered.
Having never formally studied art, I attempt not to over-complicate my process.
I shoot 35mm film and transparencies, and scan and print the images with minimal
alteration.
Since settling in New York, I have further explored the idea of solitude - by
looking at the way we view and interact with other animals, our environment
and each other - through on-going projects, collaborations and exhibitions across
the US.
