STATEMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My work is a direct reaction to my inner world, environment and personal traumas. I draw inspiration from the Surrealists and Dadaists–artists that work with the subconscious–raise awareness–symbolism–assemblage of the ordinary and contrary with distortion and the bizarre: a passion for primitivism–shake it all about in my creative combustion in perpetual innovation and revelation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

BIO<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

My work evolves around themes of inequality, social injustice, climate change, women\u2019s issues, personal trauma and the future. I am based in Melbourne, Australia and have been in several group shows locally and internationally and my most recent contribution was for the Kyiv CUTOUT Collage International show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
