RENDEZVOODOO

Summer residency with my Adelaide family, Fontanelle Gallery and Studios in January 2014. Their Art Scene Satellite project brought me to collaborate with the amazing painter and sculptor Anna Gore. A heartfelt colourist who helped me learn to trust instinct and let magic happen. From chats about surface and unseen forces I made my largest work to date, a large suspended work of leather spilling from the ceiling to the floor and looking ready to pounce and swallow you into its flayed flesh shadow. I really loved hanging out with the many bright and lovely folks that make up the amazing Fontanelle. Good job Brigid Noone and Ben Leslie!
