Equus Tail Pendant on Chain
sterling silver, rayon tassel in black
AU $260

The Equus Tail pendant is one of my favourites and I often wear it with my Equus range rings. It's really eye catching as the tassel brings so much movement to the piece. I like the combination of silver and non metal materials like fabric and the contrast between the polished metal against the matte texture of the tassel. I think I will experiment with that combination more in the future.

Insect Drawings for Annexed Album Cover

In late 2008 I was commissioned by Sydney based instrumental band Annexed to create artwork for their album When Philistines Joust.

Through many discussions with the band, we decided on the symbol of the bee to convey the concept behind their music. The drawing is ink on paper and measures approximately 40 cm in height by 2 meters in width. It illustrates a battle between swarms of bees and explores ideas of hierarchic conflict and mass action. This was a really rewarding piece to create as I was using their instrumental sound as inspiration. I have never collaborated with musicians to make work before so it was challenging and heaps of fun.
