I am a freelance photographer based in Melbourne. My interest in photography began in high school in 2015, where I fist studied Studio Art (Photography) and fell in love with the art and culture work. My interest became a passion, I set out to continue learning, further developing and refining my skills at RMIT.
For this project, I have been working with and re- creating sculptural environments, collecting many different types of waste and materials.
My approach to public art has been to explore the relationship of waste culture and consumption, art and collecting, object and the discarded, Earth.
During the development of a concept, I begin with a research of the site to provide a contextual framework for the work. In this process, I seek out environmental, cultural phenomena or types of waste that are harmful to the living world.
My undergraduate experience has inspired me confidence to sharpen my creativity, so I can further my research and make a meaningful contribution to the field in photography. I am planning to continue learning and refining skills through personal projects and photographic assisting.
