I acknowledge that I live and work on Kaurna Land, the Country of the Kaurna people of the Adelaide Plains. I pay respect to Elders past and present. I recognise and respect their cultural heritage, beliefs and relationship with the land.
RAKA -2017
Using N.P van Wyk Louw’s poem-epic ‘Raka’ as inspiration, this series of sculptures question ways of being a South African immigrant in post-colonial Australia.
Reflecting on how language and broadcasting was militarised in South Africa during apartheid,‘Echoes' explores how 'Others are Othered' in our society.
Performed on the stripped chassis of a Holden
Commodore VF, the work reimagines the
car as a uniquely evolved Australian feral lion, now facing extinction.
