fill in the blanks







Think about space, escaping, hiding spaces, building a house on a moving object. thriving in departure zones like bus stations and airports. standing still in a dust storm or at the top of Martin Place. waiting watching. think about closing your eyes and imagine running so fast. you breathe fast, start gasping for air and you haven't moved a muscle. lying at the bottom of the pool and looking up through the water. diving. listening to your breath. closing your eyes.







then think about construction/fabrication/make up masks/costumes/houses.







games/ ladders/interiors/superfluous decoration and the definition of O.T.T . and imagine how much you can hide under that distraction, colourful beautiful creative mess.

opening night pictures


































I have posted a few pictures from the opening night we had in Binalong august 28 for the exhibition 'construction sites'which I had been working on for the last 12 months. The show was an amalgamation of two exhibitions, with similar themes of new vanitas paintings (see statement in the about me section of this blog- rather appropriate with the vanitas theme on a personal note!) and the contrast of consumer culture and our temporality..flux and the constant state of building in our lives. I will put pictures up of my work soon.
