- Artist Statement
- Ascending the Upside Down is a musing exploration of the paradoxes of the "Australian" outback. A landscape perpetually shifting between the hostile and rugged environment and vibrant colours, it navigates the delicate balance between order and chaos, certainty and ambiguity. Inspired by my walks through unfamiliar landscapes, this work reimagines the terrains as an inverted world—a reflection of upheaval, change, and wonder. Video clips from the walk are layered into the scene, inviting viewers to navigate this evolving, dreamlike space alongside me. The work is constructed from an extensive archive of digital fragments, including video clips, still images, and 3D scans captured during these walks. By deconstructing, reconstructing, and reassembling these fragments, I created a landscape where the real and the imagined blur together.
