Artist Statement

My photography and art practice is influenced strongly by my professional training in cultural geography. My artwork is conceptually-driven, and simultaneously personal and political. In my visual arts practice, I am drawn to understanding diverse relationships between identity, place and environment. On the one hand, my work explores the intersections of cultural and natural systems, including human-animal relations, conservation, urban nature, streetscapes, architecture, capital exchange and natural elements. On the other hand, I also delve into political and psychological work that captures shifting moments of selfhood, identification and belonging.

Melbourne Tram

Melbourne Tram, 2014.
Digital Photograph, 15cm x 10cm.

This image of a Melbourne tram was taken in the CBD, at a Flinders Street junction, late on a January afternoon, 2014. My intention was to capture the play of light and animation from the buildings, sky and tram while the vehicle was in motion. The effect is an image balanced by four quadrants of light and colour. The image will feature in the 2015 Invest Victoria promotional calendar.
