About the Artist
I'm a Melbourne-based figurative artist. I tell stories about women through art. My figurative artworks explore the portrayal of womanhood in popular culture. Each series or body of work is focused on a slightly different subject or theme, however, they all revolve around personal identity as defined within a larger cultural influence. Making art that is interesting as well as aesthetically pleasing is my goal.
I have exhibited widely across Australia, including numerous solo exhibitions at venues such as SOL Gallery (Fitzroy, Victoria), Tacit Gallery (Collingwood, Victoria), Red Gallery (Fitzroy, Victoria), and Gaffa Gallery (Sydney, New South Wales). Group exhibitions have included presentations at Art to Art (North Balwyn, Victoria), Melbourne University (Southbank, Victoria), Gaffa Gallery (Sydney, New South Wales), among many others.
I am an award-winning artist, having won two art prizes and been shortlisted for many prestigious awards such as the Marie Ellis Drawing Prize, Lethbridge 10,000 Small-Scale Art Award, Hornsby Art Prize, Agendo Award, and the Metro Art Prize. I have been featured in Yen Magazine, Desktop Magazine, Art Lovers Australia, as well as others.
In 2023, I undertook a dream artist residency in France, which you can read about on the Artist Blog. In 2019, I completed a Graduate Certificate of Visual Arts at the Victorian College of the Arts (VCA). Before that, I completed a Diploma of Visual Arts at Box Hill Institute. I work out of my home studio in the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia, where I live with my husband, two sons and my dog.
