Great Whales

This collection honours my father’s research into great whales and their migrations along the Western Australian coast, and the artists who helped us see whales as they truly are.

The Ancient Sea

Inspired by ammonites and the ancient oceans, this work reflects on fragility, ancestry, memory and the changing life of our planet.

The Jurassic Coast

Inspired by the cliffs and ocean bed of England’s southeast coast, this series reflects on ammonites, deep time, ancestry and the fragility of life.

Remembering the Dinosaurs

Playful dinosaur forms invite us to consider extinction and vulnerability, and to look more closely at the endangered species we still have time to protect.

Aquatic Animals

This series explores aquatic life, from the fluid movement of goldfish to the skeletal textures of seahorses—forms that feel like floating coral with eyes.

Wave Series

Inspired by Hokusai’s The Great Wave and the powerful breaks of the Margaret River coastline, this series explores the rhythm and restless energy of the sea.

Trees

Inspired by the remnant native forests of southwest Western Australia, this series captures the subtle beauty of eucalypts through dry vases, sculpture, textiles and ceramics.

Vessels

Hand-built from coils, these hollow forms celebrate the sculptural character of clay—even where slumping, lamination and blistering create unexpected beauty.

Female Forms

The human form is a classic muse. These ceramic figures explore smooth, rounded forms and the endless possibilities of the pose.

UFOs Unidentified Fired Objects

This series explores the meeting of ancient artefacts and futuristic technology, drawing on archaeology, time travel, lost civilisations, sacred geometry and interstellar exploration.

Mermaids

Mermaids are playful, elusive creatures from the rockpools of the imagination. This collection began as an ode to Susan Sowerby and her guidance.

Mirrors

These mirrors express a love of Art Nouveau while playfully exploring two-dimensional forms with subtle relief.
