Art is at the center of everything I do, whether it’s curating exhibitions, writing about art, or creating my own work. I care deeply about making art accessible to everyone and creating opportunities for people to connect with it. My curatorial projects highlight the work of local contemporary artists, while my research focuses on Aboriginal Australian art and its impact on culture, civil rights, and land issues.
I’m fascinated by how art reflects human experiences and creates change. This interest also drives my hands-on work as a welder, where I explore how materials are transformed through creativity and craft. Whether working in an art studio, a metal shop, or a gallery, I’m motivated by the ways art shapes the world and inspires people at every level of society.
