About me

Introduction Hello, I'm a performance and installation artist living, working and creating in Auckland, New Zealand. After graduating from the Honors program at AUT University in 2005 I have continued to develop my practice. I work with an ever expanding collection of mediums including fabric/textiles, electronics/robotics, culinary arts, video and most recently cardboard. But, as I'm sure you will soon discover, any object or material is a possibility. My research focuses on the relationships between art work, art practice, performer and audience. Within this working relationship the allocation of position/s of power alter between each performance and are used to explore desire, ethics and hospitality in a performative way. I hope you enjoy having a look around.
