Excitement in my YYS studio!
So so exited developing and creating new work in the studio this week. The more I work with this material I realise how much more awesome it is! Giving me so much flexibility, possibilities and pleasure to work with. Not counting the never ending supply of a discarded material available daily. A new work to create awareness of our plastic consumption and its effect on our eco-system

New show at PS50 - White Nights
Starting the new year with a show at PS50 one of the newest alternative galleries in town. The show is about how interesting opposite can be. As Christmas is in summer in Australia, I will be recreating the feeling of the wintery Christmas of my youth with a little difference as it is presented in Melbourne on our long hot summer nights for the month of February 2015. Nine Large snowflakes created from single use plastic packaging found in our back lanes will be backlit in window boxes along Orr st (opposite cafe).

Artist Residency - Day 13 - Star Weekly
A beautiful day in Footscray, further building my totems which I have lined with a different plastic lining each. Lots of people coming in the studio today! Perhaps this is due to the article on Artsbox artist residency in the Star Weekly November 5, 2014 printed issue by Benjamin Millar and the lovely photo taken by photographer Joe Mastroianni as seen below.

The work will be seen at night through the openings onto the carpark. Black: Take away coffee lids White: Take away coffee lids take away soft drinks lids Straws
The Sustainable Living Festival: Zero Waste Luncheon
ECLECTIC WONDERLAND I am delighted to have been selected to participate in the Melbourne Food and Wine event organised by the Sustainable Table: a Zero Waste Luncheon As an experimental artist, the nature of my work involves adapting the materials fossicked and collected. As such the objects become redefined into a plethora of sculptural forms and installations, often informed by creatures from the deep encountered during their washed up journey to our shores. www.sustainabletable.org.au/EventCalendarDetails/tabid/56/2014/2/1218
Excitement is in the air….
New Show-Memoire de Vie Gently but surely the artworks is coming together for my long awaited solo exhibition at The Alliance Française 51 Grey St St Kilda The 'Eildon Gallery' is situated in the ballroom in the grand mansion and offers an opportunity to set up works in 2 different areas This show is exiting for me as I am bringing together the full spectrum of my multi-disciplinary practice in one single venue. 'Mémoire de Vie’ exhibits the extent of my passion for painting abstract painting realism assemblage sculpture & installation As an artist participating in a show means that you may be able to enter only one or two works. While this is a great all worth while and the artist may target only one stream of work from their own practice, it is also wonderful to be invited to have the opportunity to bring it all under one roof...
'Memories'
Super exited! Just got my stands back for my show at Alliance Française de Melbourne this year They look awesome! These sculptures were made from the found frosted glass from my local beach
