Past Work 


A Mere Passing Thing, Platform Arts, Geelong, 2023


Exhibition Site: https://platformarts.org.au/events/a-mere-passing-thing 

A Mere Passing Thing explores death and its associated states of mind, such as rumination and denial. Medieval references like the Danse Macabre, Ars Moriendi, trickster and fool create a framework for interrogating these reactions. This exhibition further develops a body of work created for my Bachelor of Fine Arts (Honours).
