Biosmos 2007

A kinetic, sensory light and sound installation composed of hundreds of suspended crystals that glow and move in the dark. Developed from investigation into marine bioluminescence and the comparable worlds of deep sea and deep space. The work references the physics of energies, forces and motion at play. Its weightlessness and ethereal beauty appears to defy gravity, energising the space as it escapes from a galaxy-like hole in the floor.

Sub 2007

Interactive luminous hole in the wall, responding to hand movements by generating sound. Exploring ideas about sense of unknown and unexplored space.

Roaming Constellation 2007

A project proposing to map the movement of a flock of sheep at night as they roam the landscape.

The work references the traditional methods farmers use to mark their flock of sheep for identification. Glow in the dark markings charge in sunlight during the day, becoming active as evening closes in. Viewers witness the work during hours of darkness as a changing, luminous pattern across the countryside. A living artwork that paints the landscape in a new light and brings the stars down to earth. Also exploring concepts about genetic engineering.

Glow Seaweed 2008, 16 x 13 cm

Seaweed air sacs appear to glow with signs of life, mimicking the natural phenomenon of bioluminescence.
