Rivervale Primary School:
Working with a lovely bunch of parents and a grand parent to produce another series of installations at Rivervale Primary school.
Always a joy to work with the Song Room. This project focussed on the school's commitment to being a 'safe school'
My second Song Room project was with Carson Street School. This is a small school for children with special needs.
As the projects I do for the Song Room involve an element of interactivity this school offered the opportunity to design out interactive art boards to accommodate children in wheelchairs.

City of Gosnells Banner for St Georges Terrace:
Four schools were chosen to design the 2017 WALGA (Western Australian Local Government Association) Banner for St Georges Terrace:
This was a fun project working with four very different ideas for the banner design! The banner finally chosen by council members was Caladenia Primary.
As all four designs are equally engaging and represent the cultural diversity of the City of Gosnells it is rewarding to know that all four banners will be on permanent display in the city!

This was an interesting project which took part in the Plaza Shopping Centre over two days in Apring and involves children visiting the shopping centre. The Kids made faces and little people out of paper and these were then digitally collaged to form the final design! Approximately 60 children took part in the project.
The Victoria Park Centre for the Arts Empowerment with Art Project:
A collaborative project with Kero O'Shea ( Film maker extraordinaire)
This project was jointly funded by a Catalyst Grant from the Community Arts Network WA. The main focus of the project was empowerment of culturally diverse members of the local community though art.
The project had two elements:
- Creation of collaborative visual artworks for installation and permanent display at the Victoria park Centre for the Arts. These works to represent and celebrate the cultural diversity of the community.
- The recording of the process and the empowerment of participant as they told their stories on film and developed interview skills.
We experienced a number of challenges with this project initially, however once the project got off the ground some wonderful moments were recorded and beautiful artworks created by members of the local community and the students of Bentley primary school and Kent Street Senior High School.
