Winner of the 2024 Paddington Art Prize People's Choice Award

“A Bird Flew Across My Path” examines the specific sites in close proximity to my home in North Fremantle; specifically drawing upon the experience of walking along the high limestone cliffs, and through areas of remnant bush that have survived as a result of pre-colonial, colonial, industrial and residential impact. My endeavour in this body of work is to capture energetic echoes of past human and non-human inhabitants and translate this into abstract oil paintings.
