A big thank you to the talented Hong Kong artist, Jovial Yeung, who has invited me to exhibit in what will be my first solo show in Hong Kong. I can't begin to say how excited I am to exhibit a new work, Two -Way Street II, in my home town. Two-Way Street ll is a new work extended from Two-Way Street (2015). Using every day found objects, from different parts of the world, I have created an installation that explores the complex nature of mutual communication within human relationships. The fine balance of give and take in a relationship is at the heart of this work.  The exhibition will be held at Jockey Club Creative Arts Centre, from 2nd - 6th of July. The opening is on Saturday 2nd of July from 3-5pm, and will include a short performance at the start. Details are in the poster below.

And 'Untitled (Healing).   http://youtu.be/rft_IA_ScKE

Updated some photos of my works at this exhibition. It was a joined solo exhibition with Artist Wendy Edwards. 

The opening of The Other Art Fair Sydney first launched 2015 at Central Park. It was really cool to be able to interact with the audience and all the other participated artists. I found It was a great exercise and experience for an emerging artist.

I'm having an exhibition with fellow artist Wendy Edwards at Gallery Klei in Sydney opening on the 11th of September. The show includes drawings, sculpture and installation exploring landscape. Wendy Edwards Having come out of a long practice of black and white (primarily landscape) photography, Wendy’s  work continues her fascination with tone, shadow and a meditative process whereby she distills the Australian landscape down to what she sees as its key elements. Initially Wendy likes to work “en plein air”, looking for the essence of the landscape she’s chosen and then attempts to represent this essence by a line or simple shape.  From this simple beginning, Wendy finds that the elements then seem to take on their own order or relationships as she ‘plays’ with them.  Wendy approachs individual works as if they were empty rooms in which she places just a few pieces of furniture  to make them co...
