This exhibition has been brewing in my psyche for This exhibition has been brewing in my psyche for a few years now, so it feels inevitable that it’s finally happening.
After doing an exhibition on my naked body a while back, I didn’t think anything could get more vulnerable. But this show is a whole new level of personal, but also in a universal way. 

I would love to have you visit the exhibition to be part of this deeply personal work. 

Opening celebration: 3rd Sept @ 5:30pm 
The Gallows Gallery - Launceston College 

Exhibition continues till the 9th of Oct during school hours 9-4pm

EXHIBITION STATEMENT 
“Fault Lines is a series of abstract paintings and charcoal works that explores identity and the hidden structures that shape our inner lives. Drawing on experiences of mental health, trauma, unconscious conditioning, and inherited belief systems, the work investigates the relationship between the self we present to the world and the self that exists beneath layers of adaptation and survival.

The title draws on the geological metaphor of fault lines—hidden points of pressure that can remain dormant for years before revealing themselves through rupture, displacement, or change. Repeated marks, textures, and accumulations of gesture speak to fractures, tensions, vigilance and the unseen forces that lie beneath the surface of experience. 

Rather than offering fixed narratives, the works invite reflection on the visible and invisible forces that form us, the patterns we inherit, and the complexities of lived experiences.”

Hope to see you there
