'The Three Romances' is a series of 10 works on paper. Each work utilises three romantic motifs; sunsets, sailing ships and the ocean. The information that has informed these images comes out of research around the history of Tasmania, focusing in particulra on the conflict between the First Australians and the British coloinsers around 1829 when the conflict was at its peak, and in part by Richard Flanagan's book 'Wanting'. |

'Inland Sea' is a body of work which considerd the historical treatment of our natural and cultural environment. The title is inspired by journal writings of early European explorers who assumed, without doubt, that there would be a sea at the centre of Australia. Individual elements work together to consider the comtemporary and ongoing effects of occupation, settlement and ownership. |
