I am an artist with an unusual pathway to the creative.
I grew up in Papua New Guinea (PNG) with some 17 years immersed in the Melanesian aesthetic and islander artistic traditions. This aesthetic, what I loosely call representative symbolism, has had a profound effect on my practice. I draw on this experience in much of my work.
I undertake private commissions and actively seek to exhibit my work in public spaces.
A teaser of a new form – or a return to a older one that is recast for a new time. back to Black….a new series that will explore moved using a 9 panel construction of images (Times 9 series)
So thanks to Art in Public Places – http://www.artinpublicplaces.com.au I have a gig at the Junction Hotel Beer Hall. (15 Hall Street Newport – right next to Newport Station so you don’t need a car!)
Now that’s my kind of gallery! Check it out over the month of April – your feedback is most welcome…my brochure below
