My ambition is to transcend modern constructs and immerse my-self in the investigation of newly reformed visual art climates that all can enjoy. Driven by an obsession of curiosity, the thoughts of modern constructs linger in my mind as fragmentary pieces of possible outcomes. The aim is to continue pushing and evolving my ideas, in an effort to achieve the most idyllic and beautiful results. I believe I offer an eclectic point of view and I hope to be a part of your visual art program so I can share my thoughts and further develop my talents to be a more mature and successful Artist in the years to come.

BEE HOTELThis project came about as an attempt to exploit the fascinating art of bee keeping and its possible integration in an urban environment. It serves as a hotel where one can rest among the sanctum of bees and
flora gaining nourishment through bee keeping.

THE WRECKThis project was stimulated by a current lack of culture along the Gold Coast beach front at Surfers Paradise. It’s main function as a performance space is designed to facilitate social activity
and to develop a language for an art walk along the coast line.

INSTALATION PROJECTTo accompany the ‘Wrap’ the digitaly fabricated wall was a group experiement toward resolving complex interactive
building enclosures. The wall also featured as a back drop for the Gold Coast Fashionably Conscious fashion
show.
