Alluvia

Project Description

UPDATE: An invitation to my latest exhibition, where my newest illustration series will be on display for the very first time.
This is an example of the work I'm doing, there'll be new books, prints folios and original artwork on display at the Paper Mill, thanks for your support!

++++

 

 

My first instalment in this series, ‘Asperatus,’ was fittingly launched in the Australian Museum’s skeleton gallery amidst 200 wilting roses.


View photos from the event here and the series in its entirety here. The project also featured an accompanying series of interview videos.


Currently, I am developing my second instalment, 'Alluvia' - a never before seen series of full colour drawings and paintings.

 

This funding will nurture the continuous diligent and disciplined creation of new and original artwork for each season’s release; and to ensure each body of work is granted a display and delivery properly aligned with its intention and appropriate audience.

 

I am raising support to realize this demanding undertaking, including the subsidization of forthcoming publications, prints, display, promotion and exhibition of new work.

 

Please do consider leaving a comment or sending me a message irrespective of your ability to contribute to this endeavour, as, if you believe this work as thoroughly as I do, I do very much appreciate your support and company across the digital vacuum!
