Over and over, a heartbeat rhythm, the sea always this body turned inside out and opened to the sky, the body always a sea folded in on itself, a nautical chart folded into a paper cup.

Over the moon to announce that Hold Still is nominated for the 2025 Iris Prize, the largest prize for LGBTQIA+ short filmmaking in the world. It’s a beautiful honour to have this little film screening in Cardiff, Wales this October amidst a wonderful celebration of queer cinema (including some incredible Australian entries). Thank you to all the people that made this film possible & thank you to @melbqueerfilmfest for all your support in championing this film <3
So grateful to those I’ve been able to collaborate with & can’t wait to get back on set 🎬

Congrats to the lovely @chloeviolettemusic on her beautiful new album being out in the world!
We made lots of fun work together as a part of this project and this shot is one of my favourites 💙

Dirt Pink, 2025
Presented as part of @midsummafestival 2099: Messages to our queer future, an exhibition inviting artists to send a love letter forward to future generations of LGBTIQA+ folks.
The body as landscape; ordinary, ancient, enduring. A small record of how we cared for each other, gestures toward the selves we were, the ones we might become, and those waiting.
Curated by @theartistknownasfoot, exhibiting at @louisjoelartscommunity & supported by @creativecityhobsonsbay
Showing from 17 Jan – 4 Feb. Launch Saturday 24 Jan, 12pm.
