My work Untitled (home) #3 (2015) has been selected as a finalist in the Maggie Diaz Photography Prize for Women, exhibiting at Brightspace gallery and opening 3 September. More details on the prize are here.
Read a much more eloquent assessment of the day on the Arts Project blog here.
This view of an empty corner is no longer such a quiet and empty space - all manner of ridiculous things are crammed into the little space at the Abbotsford Convent that is my studio for the time being. I was lucky enough to receive one of this year's Studio Start- Up: six months of rent free studio space at the convent (in an ex-nun's bedroom - that is, a room that used to be a bedroom for a nun, not a bedroom for women that were previously nuns).
I'll try and update with some photos of its current state (bags, wigs, flags, sewing machines, books, TVs TVs and more TVs, 9 DVD players etc etc), but please feel free to get in touch if you are heading in to the convent, I am always keen to be distracted and grab a coffee.

Thanks to the awesome team at Channels- The Australian Video Art Festival for interviewing me to catch up on everything I've been up to since their 2013 festival (which included my work Untitled #8).
