Chakra Panel
A long panel that reads left to right, from a morning sky over the coast to a starfield at the far edge. Birds of prey and herons crowd the left-hand shore, a wave curls under a crystalline pyramid, dolphins leap overhead, and serene green faces look out from the right. Across the lower half run rows of discs: a tree through the four seasons, the phases of the moon, and the seven chakra symbols climbing to Om, set above a line of mountain peaks.

Elephant
A biro drawing of an elephant.
Elva Karto
Elva Karto is a mind map drawn out of a turbulent chapter of my life, an attempt to weave social commentary and autobiography around the twin threads of spirituality and duality. Where earlier pieces were crowned with a strange, Masonic upper section and dressed in the dense, Magna Carta look of a medieval charter, this one lets that go for something stranger and more alien. At heart it is a love story, and not an entirely untangled one. More than anything it is a codex: a record of one period of my life, in a style I wish I had more time to return to, because every moment spent in it feels worthwhile.

Maple

Solopoly
Ink and watercolour, conjured in Footscray after an epiphany in a back alley, as we searched for the words to describe a game called Solopoly: a board game of one, orbiting the sun. Hidden in plain sight was the pun no one had claimed, that Monopoly has carried the moon in its name all along. Solopoly folds checkers, chess, backgammon and Monopoly together with the political spectrum and the spectrum of love and relationships, until the board becomes a game of life itself, played by clairvoyance and won only in the present moment.
State Raëlien
Oil painting exploring the aesthetic of a Raelian state — a speculative theocratic imaginary.
