Vincent (full title in 'about') Painting - Limited Edition of 10

I am a Canberra-based poet and visual artist, with an background in music. I’ve published a collection of poetry, The Myrrh-Bearers (Sydney: Puncher & Wattmann, 2015), and a book of images and poems made while living with the Warlpiri, The Lumen Seed (New York: Daylight Books, 2017). I’m a proud member of Oculi collective and an Artist in residence with Music Viva. Since 2011, I have spent part of each year living and working with Warlpiri people in the Northern Tanami desert. My work includes themes of displacement and identity loss, a reflection on my own lost Aboriginal ancestry, but primarily it is centred on the concept of connection with Country. I trace my ancestry to the Bpangerang people of North-Eastern Victoria and the NSW Riverina. I also trace ancestry to Ghana, the Ivory Coast, France, Ireland and Scotland.
