Aboriginal, cultural, and storytelling Contemporary art abstract, and texture Metallic epoxy floor design
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration in my family‘s culture in our resilience and determination to keep our people together and strong
What would you do with $25,000?I’d put a strong portion into my next body of work materials, studio upgrades, and pushing scale. Bigger canvases, more immersive pieces, maybe integrating AR layers directly into physical art through Wallspace. Not just making art but creating experiences people step into. I’d host something an event, workshop, or pop-up especially for younger artists or people who don’t usually get access. Teach them how to create, how to monetize, how to use tools like AR. That’s how you turn a moment into.
