about

as an artist my making is a portal into creative encounter with other, considering the way we merge and emerge through relationship. my current work explores embodied participatory art making as a re-membering that we are kin / of the same stuff as the multiplicity of earth around us.

 

engaging with place - through walking, deep listening, collective intuitive and improvised sound-making, the sharing of song, bio-acoustic music making, and co-created mark-making - my practice considers art as an intra-action. extending into the imaginary, inhabiting story, improvising with the world around, i draw on the mythic, folkloric, and ritual - rejecting binaries of institutionalised colonialism.

 

i am a folk singer, improvising musician and activist, also a community facilitator, registered homeopath and natural voice choir leader. i am also one half of experimental-folk duo alula down, and when i mention 'we' i usually mean my work with Mark Waters.
