​About
I was born in Hobart and currently live and work in Melbourne.  I am a painter and my work is an exploration of self-perception.  I am interested in contrasting viewpoints of the self and one’s place within the world.
 I work with oil and enamel to construct paintings that explore feelings of alienation and psychological tension involved in human subjectivity.
