BEHIND THE LENS
I’m a photographic artist based in Brisbane, Australia, with more than 20 years of experience behind the camera.
I trained at RMIT in Melbourne, and my practice has always moved between two things that are, at their heart, the same thing: fine art and people. Still-life work that explores the beauty of the natural world. Images that reveal something true about a person - honest, considered, and genuinely them. The thread running through all of it is the same: presence, and the sensitivity to recognise it.
My fine art work is exhibited and held in private collections. Later this year I'll be showing my work at Artspace Teneriffe in Brisbane, an exhibition I've been quietly working toward since relocating to Qld.
Twice Nillumbik Prize finalist. RMIT BA Photography. Exhibiting artist. Based in Brisbane, available elsewhere by request.
