Visual Art – Melbourne

I\'m an artist, photographer and writer who combines these three areas into a creative practice. Currently my work revolves around ideas of masculinity, the male form, adolescence, and existential philosophical ideas. I\'m really passionate about the opportunity to work with a range of models and creatives in my work to realise beautiful images as well as learning about people and representing them. I was educated in a private, largely male Melbourne college which gave birth to this fascination. I have always enjoyed reading and drawing throughout my childhood, but it is only in recent years that photography was introduced to my practice, and since, has come to dominate it.
