Bachelor of Fine Arts (Photography)
Some of the most important moments of my life have passed in loud silence. My photographic practice is inspired by restorative departures to a small town in Victoria, Jamieson. In Jamieson, moments of reflection and growth are dispersed like heady perfume. Through a meditative awareness of light, particularly its softness and flow, I am reminded of intangibility. Like our interior self, light can be perceived and documented but it is also fickle and fleeting. I translate the endless hours spent staring at white walls into abstract portals of colour. Like Jamieson’s mountains, my photographs offer an opportunity to breathe, contemplate and be present.
