my passion for photography took hold at the tender age of fifteen when my father gave me his old nikkormat slr camera.

i completed a three year diploma of illustrative photography at photography studies college in melbourne, australia in 1997.

a large portion of my work centres around self-portraiture, portraiture, urban landscapes, graveyards, dolls, and the minutiae of every day life.

in 2007 i held my debut solo exhibition alternate worlds at brunswick street gallery, fitzroy, victoria.

from 17 april 2007 until 16 april 2008 i completed a 365 days project – a self-portrait a day for a year. a selection of the images from the series are featured on my website and 109 images from the series were included in a limited edition self-published book, darkness & light.

my work has been included in two self-published volumes of female self-portraiture featuring a number of international artists: she took her own picture and in her own image, both available through the blurb.com bookstore.

i self-published a collection of my portraiture entitled enVisage in july 2009; and my work can regularly be seen in local and online group exhibitions and magazines, including an interview on the myartspace blog in may 2009, and an interview in phirebrush in early 2008.

i was selected as a finalist in the corangamarah art prize in 2008 and 2009, and shortlisted for the 2009 Toyota Community Spirit Artist Travel Award.

i am currently working on a new series of self-portraiture, interior / exterior, which explores the relationship between self and environment, whether open or contained spaces, and includes a mixture of autobiographical and fictional imagery. through this series, i continue to concentrate on narrative, light and colour, with a certain darkness finding its way into my images.

i hope to develop 'interior / exterior' further during 2009 and into 2010 during intended travels around the east coast of australia and to the u.k. and u.s., and exhibit the series as part of a collaborative exhibition featuring ambient sounds recorded by philip ivens.

my work can regularly be seen in local and online group exhibitions and magazines.
