ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The Kamilaroi people of far northern NSW were renowned wood carvers - carving into the sapwood of Eucalyptus trees at important sites such as burial or initiation grounds). Each tree was carved (sing stone tools) in a unique pattern, as if to symbolise that trees spirit. At a burial site these carved trees (or Dendroglyphs) seemingly stood as sentinel's, the carving facing in towards the gravesite. The land now has been taken but the carving is etched so deep, it is just a matter of waiting for that spirit to be revived. So connected are the people to the land.

I'm a South African born, world travelling soul. I have walked a number of paths professionally from law to journalism to television camera operator. Circumstances now allow me to work with stills cameras. Initially I worked as a Landscape Photographer, but bored by the hum drum of pretty pictures I began exploring (perhaps) a more feminine aspect of my character. I enrolled in The Arcanum to work with a master (Jackie Ranken) who's work I've always admired...he mantra is to PLAY, PLAY A LOT. And in this playing I have begun playing out the books that I read my two girls at bedtime every night. Sill the series continue and my head gets filled with images that need bleeding every so often into digital fine art paper!
