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.

Beginning to see through the medium...

A new venture or two through the light mist in front of me. I love the winter and it's mysterious ways, it's walls of water washes in a Perth winter. It's raining in Yangon in this wet summer season at the same time. Somewhere not so far away.

Here are some new works I'm developing ideas from the recent co-lab in Yangon... We are having another performance/art exhibition and dance film showing in Fremantle WA in November for the Fremantle Arts Festival... I'm also hoping to get started with working with glass...

Some paper cut outs ...
