Helmet is from a body of works on paper called the ‘Tin Suit’ series. These prints, drawings and collages investigate and re-interpret two icons of Australian material culture: corrugated iron and Kelly Gang armour. The Kelly Gang led my infamous bushranger Ned Kelly were infamous 19th century Australian outlaws, who wore improvised metal armour suits in their gun battles with the police.

In this work I have amalgamated site drawings of buildings, streets and various structures to create a fish eye view of the inner west of Sydney. By creating such a cityscape I form a historical document and record of the specific place.

As is often found in art and writing, all three mountains are used as metaphors for the real, the ideal, the emotional.

Multi-plate intaglio, relief with chine colle Edition of 40 Image size: 25 x 42.5 cm Paper size: 53 x 71.5 cm PCA Print Commission 2002 The work comes from an ongoing series, which combines personal symbols of place with those pertaining to my parents and grandparents, creating a personal map, an 'autobiographical map'. The left hand panel depicts the Gymea Lily, a symbol of place more than anything, denoting my previous home on the Illawarra escarpment north of Wollongong. The right shows a detail from a work by the 17th century Spanish painter Francisco Zurbaran, from a Carthusian monastery in my parents' home town in Spain.

Merge Intaglio and relief Edition of 40 Image size: 49 x 43 cm Paper size: 70 x 56 cm PCA Print Commission 2015 The abandoned object has lost its function to instruct the driver. I collect broken signs from country roads and present them as works on paper, using traditional printmaking methods. My interventions reveal weathered, scarred and reflective souvenirs. Merge becomes an off-site marker that re-presents a landscape and a site.
