Extrapolating language and perceptions from historical Pākehā writings, and by divulging motifs and signifiers from the framed landscape of the South Island, I create emblematic artworks that attempt to emanate a sense of pride of place and culture.

My art practice applies a 'soft activist' approach to the colonial condition of overwriting history.
