Restoring Ancestral Connections to Celtic Cultural Lifeways :
Land, Water, Sky

For more than thirty years, my art practice has explored cultural memory, its residues and movements across generations, and its aesthetic influences on the ways we perceive, shape and engage in the world around us. 

What I've learned, is that it is in the deep layers of Lands, Waters and Skies that memories are saved, and stories passed on, and that these stories are intrinsically rooted in the deep and ancient relationships we form with the natural world. 

As an eco-cultural reclamation practice, and as a settler colonist living on the traditional lands of the First Peoples of Australia,  it is incumbent on me to decolonise my body and mind, and creatively reconnect with the Lands, Waters and Skies of my own Ancestors, a Celtic Peoples who revered the Natural World as a Cosmology in and of itself.
