My current body of work is Collections and Memories; which is based on exploring: new/found objects, garments, old photos, toys and the natural world.
The collecting of objects began at the age of seven, when my family relocated from a beachside suburb to the Outer West.
In the process of moving all my toys fell off the back of the truck. Never to be seen again…
Taking these personal garments and objects from my past and present to creates a visual journey and narrative of my life.
I am fascinated with collecting these objects for their nostalgic meaning embodying psychological and symbolic memory.
The following paintings are from last year. The mediums used include; oils, acrylic and mixed media. This year, I have continued to work with theses mediums.
My work is exploring a spectrum of colour through an expressive and impressionistic style.
