About me.

I started out a long time ago as an artist who held her own exhibitions.

I realised that art within the gallery context could only create a certain experience, and I was interested in how art could change lives and become more affective.

I began exhibiting in unusual spaces, and branched out into more experiential, public art.

From 2009, I worked as a lead artist in the public art agency FigureGround Projects in the UK. We lead workshops, events, exhibitions and residencies where we pushed the boundaries of what was considered public art- turning away from the spectacle and gigantism- and towards intimacy and connection.

I returned to Brisbane to start a family and have produced viral food festivals as part of BCC's BrisAsia festival. I regularly run wellness and creativity retreats to support people bring their creativity into the world.

It all started when I...

I was a photography student and wanted to find a way to exhibit my work. So I organised a venue, got some friends to play some music and wrote a press release. When I finished my degree, I created my own solo show and sold out my final exhibition pieces. I got funding from Arts Queensland to produce an exhibition. And from there I kept applying for funding and creating exhibitions. I made a series of toy monsters and created installations with them which featured in Killa Chinchilla, a show I co-curated with Thea Baumann. Killa Chinchilla was about the dark side of cute and artwork was exhibited in every part of the crumbling old governor's manor 'the Belvedere'. After the success of this show I decided that art belonged outside of the gallery.

I won the Lord Mayor's fellowship and was invited to Italy to attend a residency at Fabrica.

After the residency I returned home and curated Toytakeova - a group exhibition of artists who worked using toys as a medium. Toytakeova toured Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne. Shortly after I was accepted for a storytelling residency at the Banff centre in Canada, where I was commissioned to create a floating world for an exhibition, and from Banff I moved to the UK.

I worked in a gallery in Brighton at the height of Banksy mania.

I was awarded a trip to the Venice biennale for beating the sales record. Shortly after I ran my own art market, and began working creating murals and exhibitions for the Bookartbookshop in London; and working for FigureGround. During this time I also ran an art truck called Cargo- that would screen projections on its cargo haul on the Brighton seafront; and created an installation and a nail bar in Glastonbury's Shangri-La field.
