Following the Oxley and Tweed Rivers

PROJECTS and UNIQUE STATES

I am a mixed media artist, working with, and making paper as a core medium. Interested in exploiting its surface qualities as an integral part of my work.

The 3 scrolls are experimental drawings, a continuous drawing on 16 metres or 7 metres scroll. I started my drawings on sketch books but the best way to communicate my idea, and how I felt in front of the landscape, was to draw in a continuous line, similar to walking, wandering along the fences and along the rivers.

Hill End-16 metres drawing

This is a very long drawing of my wandering around Hill End, carrying my board, paper scroll and a stool. I just loved the way the old fences dance and almost calligraphic.
I transfer the drawing into a video to take the viewer on my journey.

The world biggest mass of gold in the world was found in Hill End in New South Wales. More than a century later, a company “Hill End Gold” was again prospecting for gold with modern technology. I was given permission to photograph 1 of their drill-cores, a 200 metres long sample. Each drill-core was divided in trays of 4 lines, a narrative of the underground telling me the story of the earth I was walking on.
