'The Space Between Us Grows'

shortlisted November 2019, Henry Jones Art Prize, The Henry Jones Art Hotel, Hobart TAS

​

This piece is a thematic and visual evolution of an earlier piece by a similar name. It is an abstracted exploration of connection and disconnection between people and place, alluding to the tension of mediating heritage and identity. My current body of work riffs on a colour palette that references the colours of the Australian flag to echo the dissonance of a personal Australian identity which includes a diverse cultural heritage.
