The Wattle Room was developed in 2007 at my residency in Paris, which was awarded to me by Australian artists Tim Storrier, Annette Onslow and the National Art School.
​​
During my stay at the Cite Internationale des Arts Paris, I developed The Wattle Room, a personal visual memoir that conveys interior and exterior psychological landscapes of how I respond to the nuances of contemporary times.
“There is a very distinct feeling that I am creating my own unique reality as the artwork is known for it's absurd theatrical juxtapositions that have a personal, colourful and humorous intuition to them.
​
The outcome I create for the viewer, often through symbolic meanings from the still life genre, is a sense of the precarious reality of this world that we find ourselves in and for the viewer to question their own sense of connecting with mortality within the chaos of this delicate world, as just beneath the surface is the brevity of life.
As an artist I love to work across the multi disciplines of painting, poetry, sculpture, drawing and installation”.
