(LANDSCAPES) 1.1

This body of work aims to address and reconfigure critical discourse relating to representational figuring of landscape. It moves towards revealing and communicating an experimental, visual and effective response to place, building upon and incorporating the artist’s own sense of bodily engagement with the Tasmanian wilderness, and the proposition of an imagined landscape that emerges through a multi-sensory, process-driven creativity.
