Photography

My interest in photography should be credited to my mother. Her keen eye captured peculiar family moments with wry humour. As I grew up magazines would become my passion, which had never waned, and provided fodder for collage. I eventually got into art school, and went through to attain my PhD at the Australian National University. Read on to learn more about my interest in the medium and how I use it.

Responding to the Freedom Redefined theme, Now I’m Here marked a return to exhibiting. Along with 60 or so other exhibitors, I used the shipping container as an open studio over four days adding and changing the exhibition daily. Images and rubbish would come and go, which sometimes confounded viewers.

Creating and managing content for I amsterdam’s English language What’s On (in print and online) kept me on my toes —  you wouldn’t believe how much there is to do in Amsterdam! It was definitely a career highlight and a pleasure to be involved on such an iconic brand. I also curated their Instagram writing pithy captions capturing Amsterdam’s charms.
