关于此艺术家

My practice explores the possibilities for sewn sculpture to explore, and complicate, the relationships between concepts of the decorative and the grotesque, particularly their association with depictions of femininity. I typically employ materials such as satin and wet-look vinyl, for their direct associations with both the feminine and fetish, and to further explore notions of informe and the abject. I am particularly interested in how these things create a tension between the familiar and the unknown, and the feminine and the grotesque. To do this I utilise the organic form of a traditional sewing technique known as the Suffolk Puff to reference both foreign and familiar bodily elements and create new objects/organisms that are a hybrid of craft and art. I am interested in the way this creates a tumorous tactility between the newly formed object and familiarity of the materials from which it is made. It is this tension between form and formlessness, and allure and repulsion that is central to my practice.
Over the past year, I have become most interested in redefining the relationship/border between wearable objects and the body through the creation of wearable pieces that integrate and interact with the subject. These objects are parasitic and overtake the body to form a new decorative flesh. Recent experiments with technicolour vinyls rather than flesh tones blends the object and subject in a manner which is more surreal and open to interpretations outside that of the female body. I am interested in how this direct interaction - when documented through photography and time-based media- is able to reinvent the work in a context other than simply as sculpture or installation.
Influencing artists include Lee Bul, Jemima Wyman, Beata Batorowicz, louise bourgeois, and Christiane Haase.

Ecto-parasitic Bonnet 3

2006
Digital image of wearable made from wet-look vinyl and wadding
30 x 40 cm

I was interested in redefining the relationship/border between traditional wearable objects and the body, through the creation of fleshy wearable pieces (reminiscent of period clothing) that integrate and interact with the subject. Bonnets and bustles mutate, grow tendrils and attach themselves to their host like a strangler fig, overtaking their body to form a new decorative flesh.

Pink Purikura Jaw

2006
Digital image of wearable made from wet-look vinyl and wadding
19 x 15cm

this wearable was created for a collaborative project with Van Sowerwine, curated by Thea Bauman called Purikura Infestation which took place in a sticker booth shop in the Elizabeth St arcade, Brisbane in 2006 as a part of the mapp festival. I made a series of technicolour tumorous wearables that people were encouraged to wear in the booths. Recent experiments with technicolour vinyls rather than flesh tones blends the object and subject in a manner which is more surreal and open to interpretations outside that of the female body. I am interested in how this direct interaction - when documented through photography and time-based media- is able to reinvent the work in a context other than simply as sculpture or installation.

Purikura Pod

2006
Wet-look vinyl, wadding, wire, monitor and headphones
67 x 45 x 130cm

Purikura Pod
This Pod was installed in the stickerbooth shop as a part of the "Purikura Infestation" project. The monitor inside played a stop motion animation of a creature being attacked by mutanous creatures that emerged from the techni colour hyper reality that exists behind the purikura screen.

Snow Drift (Detail)

2007
Wet-look vinyl, wadding, rabbit fur, beads, ribbon
15 x x17 x 26cm

Snow Drift was created in response to the unique relationship between human and animal experienced during a two-month artist residency undertaken in Dawson City, Yukon, Canada in 2006. Thie series of 11 small sculptures creates tension between the familiar and the unknown, animal and human to blur the boundary between allure and repulsion.

It came from the river

2007
Wet-look vinyl, wire, beads and wadding
Various

This is a performative installation that I recently exhibited in saigon, Vietnam as a part of "The Last Vestage" curated by Thea Bauman. The exhibition took place on a junk boat on the Saigon river. In the performance I birthed a series of small barnacle-like sculptures from a series of tumorous pods and attached them to the walls and people in the space, slowly infesting the room as the night progressed.

Annelid Allure

2007
Digital image of wearable made from wet-look vinyl and wadding
59.4 x 84.1cm

Annelid Allure
This is a recent series of work in which I am interested in integrating small wearable works directly with the body in order to redefine the border between wearable and subject. The camera angle is intended to distort the subjects flesh, melding it with the brightly coloured vinyl, creating something surreal and post human.
