Vibrascopic II. 2023


An oversized kaleidoscope suspended in space creating a temporal portal, reflecting ways of viewing. The Vibrascope has been retrofitted to use wave frequency and interplay between light and sounds waves by combining them.

Through these simple devices such as kaleidoscopes invites imagination and divergent thinking beyond an empirical reality. Stating we do not all view the world through just one archetypal lens.

is currently showing Ancestral Patterns in at Trial Bay Gaol. : Ancestral Patterns is a body of work exploring familial connections in time and place. As the screenwriter and actor John Huston says, 'You walk through a series of arches, so to speak, and then, presently, at the end of a corridor, a door opens and you see backward through time, and you feel the flow of time, and realize you are only part of a great nameless procession: With an ancestor detective in the family, we have been learning about the trials, tribulations, and successes of our forebearers. This has created a complex web of blood lineages, patterns that can be hidden just below the surface. These works honour the blessings and gifts that have been passed down.
