Chasing Storms

Having recently completed a degree in Photography at the Queensland College of Art, I am embarking on a career in photographic art practice. With this newfound freedom from the educational structure I have begun working on several bodies of work.

My work method adapts with my emotions and my concerns in life, and with death. Only my emphasis on telling stories through quiet moments remains constant as I fully embrace a desire to be always changing. In an industry where finding and eternally utilising a niche style is encouraged, I choose to let my natural instincts to see and to try new things guide my path in creative art.

My series will be showcased alongside other emerging Australian artists Ben Ali Ong and Rebecca Smith, both of whom I regard as great influences as our works share an underlying emotional similarity.

Always searching for something more, something different and something fulfilling, I look to nature; I look to animal instincts; I look to the dynamic power of the weather. Chasing storms which seem to parallel human existence, I find metaphors for our emotions.
