In Residence at Bundanon

Driven by emotional responses to the climate crisis, my recent research investigates ecological shifts in landscape due to human impact. During the residency at Bundanon I will take time to connect with the surrounding landscape and develop experimental works that respond to site. Working with technology including photogrammetry, motion capture, programable LED lighting and projection, works will merge technology, human and landscape. I will continue ongoing research exploring alternative visions of the posthuman convergence through a queer, feminist lens.
