Areas of Practice: First Nations Artist
Career Level: Emerging
Influenced by my upbringing in Northern Territory, my artwork lends itself to a contemporary style of Indigenous Art. A proud Iwaidjan man, our Country is in West Arnhem Land, on the Cobourg Peninsula coast, so I tend to use a lot of patterns and symbols that depict water environments. I love being able to share and bring awareness to my culture, and have found art to be therapeutic and healing.
