An attempt to capture the aesthetic of Bonsai, but using industrial / technological materials. It’s almost like some sort of weird cybernetic tubeworm colony.

• Raw steel, stainless steel, brass, copper, computer circuit boards.
• Dimensions h,w,d: 59, 70, 32 cm.

This is my second attempt at welded metal sculpture. It was built out of scrap, and a length of bent rod.

An ephemeral figure in copper wire rising from a cast bronze base featuring the husk of a body laying face down in front of a chair.

Dimensions h,w,d (approx): 50, 40, 20cm

Bronze figure from a lifemodel.

Anonymous was an art school photography project, ostensibly for a lightroom printing subject. I decided to use it to try a gonzo-journalist approach to documenting the anti-Scientology protests being conducted by the Anonymous movement in Sydney from the mid to late 2000s.

I arrived masked, everyone at the protest was masked. I informed the people I photographed of the nature of the photography in which I was engaged. I shot the images with my brand new iPhone 3GS. They were then processed  with colour and emphasis intents, and a strong pixelation compression was applied to the subjects.

These images are presented at 50% scale, in png format. The nature of the pixelation I’ve applied means it’s very hard to recompress them, without losing the very detail I worked to create, so 50% reduction in size is the only way to achieve acceptable web file sizes.

This is a first year college piece modelled from a lifemodel.

It is constructed of steel and ethernet cable in continuous lengths from foot to foot.

Dimensions h,w,d: 100, 55, 20cm

Cloudlands house is a place you can rent in the blue mountains west of Sydney. It may look like a simple weatherboard cottage, but once you’re inside it’s all dark wood panelling, fireplaces and big clawfoot baths.

When it comes to panoramas, this is my masterwork so far.

The other end of the Enmore tunnel, it’s a pair of staircases, perpendicular to the tunnel itself, and is the very reason I got into panoramic imagery – to hunt down these filthy run down inner city locations, and find the beauty of their geometry. I’m going to get back into it in a big way in the near future hopefully.
