In 2018 I have been enjoying working in three
spheres:
As 2018 began I was already in
collaboration with Biscoe Wilson Architects, through
an invitation to submit designs to be implemented
into many of the structural features of the New
Scientific Stem Centre and Robotic Labourites of The
Gap State High School. The Gap SHS celebrated with
their Open House on Saturday 2nd March 2019.
This interactive collaboration has been stimulating
many of my long practiced skills as well as
generating new skills across medium and process. My
involvement included designs for patterning
incorporated into external glass walls; A covered
outdoor learning area; Internal classroom features;
A large variety of Perforated metal Screens; and
designs for patterning as ‘legend’ imagery to be
sandblasted into paving.

A Wider Sphere
: Throughout 2018 I had been developing a new body
of work for exhibition, to be opened on May 3rd 2019
at One Space Gallery, Brisbane. The highly acclaimed
Australian author Rodney Hall has written the
Publication Essay in support of the exhibition of
this work.
“The Challenge she sets
herself in this show is to look at the future across
a ‘wider sphere’, predicated on bringing together
this broad range of concepts, materials and skills.”

In this journey ITHINK :
ISEE ; IDEA I draw on my lifetime fascination with
compositional space. It involves explorations of
music, nature, architecture and science,
particularly physics. My early explorations
previewed some diagrams and texts that refer to
nature as an example of Lightness of Design
My One Space
Exhibition will feature NEON. I have designed a sign
to shine its message from One Space Gallery.
A gathering with friends to view one of Michael
Blazek’s recent Brisbane Neon signs.
My
videos which continue to be sought for exhibition on
outdoor Urban Screens also embrace spatial issues
expressed through ‘form and function’ in design and
in nature; compositional ideas; and scientific
developments in cosmic space. They have been playing
across 3 month periods at Bunjil Place, Narre Warren
outside Melbourne; Macquarie Place Liverpool, and
Chatswood, Sydney.

I found time
within this busy schedule to view the Auckland Art
Fair and The Len Lye Centre at Govett-Brewster Art
Gallery in New Plymouth / The Biennale of Sydney /
The APT QAGOMA
This stimulating itinerary also
inspired me to update my business card design.
