Highly Commended for The Bridge Prize in 2025

Created for the inaugural Bridge Art Prize (2025), this work engages with the redevelopment of the Bridgewater Bridge in Tasmania. The project invited artists to respond to the bridge as both infrastructure and symbol—connecting communities while marking a significant moment of transition within the landscape.

In the Balance was awarded Highly Commended, recognising its exploration of material process and conceptual response to place.

The work developed through an iterative process of layering and disruption. Mokulito prints were produced separately and then physically integrated into the composition, allowing for shifts between printed and drawn marks. Surfaces were repeatedly adjusted—built up and partially removed—to create a sense of tension and instability.

This work sits within an ongoing practice exploring place, process, and the shifting nature of built and remembered environments.

Artists Statement:

Vision, ingenuity, memory, connection.

A portal to the other side.

Transformation as we pass beneath the old; an altar to the Industrial Age. A tunnel-wrap of steel ribs and buttresses.

The new; a monumental structure, a warm grey curve arching across the water, seemingly floating above the Bridgewater Jerry.

We look for the swans as we hang in the balance.

In 2023-2024, work was commissioned to form the ‘artist’s studio’ in the film set for Netflix series “The Survivors”

Using work created from 1992-present, I assembled sketches, old etchings, drawings, paintings and photographs to be used to form the artist’s studio wall and desk.

The brief was to create approx. 25-30 images that could be used to fill an artist’s studio of someone who loved the coast and the sea around the East Coast of Tasmania.

I used some of the original artwork I created when I was at Art School in the early 1990’s as it suited the brief, etchings of shells, drawings of seaweed, sketches and plans for wire sculptures.

I was commissioned to design the book cover for the novel “Jackjumper” written by Tasmanian author; Jane Naqvi.

Along with the front cover, I also made a series of images that also featured within the novel, small indian ink drawings and paintings to feature the setting/places of some of the chapters.

The novel was published by 40 South in Tasmania.
