Works and Projects

Cartographies is a series of large screenprints created in 2010 and first exhibited as part of Systematic at M16 Artspace in Canberra.  Abstract organic forms sit graphically isolated on the full sheets of white Stonehenge paper.  Playing with scale, repitition and doubling, these forms have become more stark and monumental than the very small prints they are derived from.  They alude to nature and landscape, but keep their secrets close.  The motifs used here derive from earlier, more intimate works, printed directly from animal bones, sectioned pieces of found sticks, and wood engravings drawn from the landscape.
