Guest of Honour is a madcap mashup of gods, beliefs, and cultures, like a spiritual blender set to high. It's a shout-out to the way gods and religions have been mixed and matched through history, forming a rainbow quilt of faith as motley as any crew’s ever been. All set against a backdrop of a Balinese temple with Cambodian flourish. Laced with the solemnity of Thai monks in prayer at the top of the stairs. Building into a diorama of how folklore, Hindusim and Buddhism blended together in SE Asia. Giving rise to many site specific faiths, like the Hindus of Bali, whose distinct form of worship incorporates local animism, ancestor worship or Pitru Paksha, and reverence for Buddhist saints or Bodhisattava. Or Buddhism in Thailand, which integrated with folk religion (Bon) as well as Chinese religions from the large Thai Chinese population.

The Guest of Honour wears a crown but carries the weight of all this mish-mashed faith. An ecumenical bird god, right smack in the middle of all the faith-based politicking that put him in his place. Decked out in a Chinese tortoise shell crown, deer antlers, and these shiny totems. Bedazzling anyone who lingers long enough to hear how they’re getting it all wrong. A leaping, squawking symbol of how we roll one religion into another, and another, until they’re flattened out by the weight of history and all their quirks become part of the scenery. Which happens wherever you go, no matter how far you go back. Just like the Romans copy-pasting their gods from the Greeks. Or adopting gods from places they conquered to help their Roman pantheon fit right in.

"Guest of Honour" shows the intriguing magic of faith being manufactured for the masses to empower a small few. Served here with a smile — a whole song and dance — asking you to think about how faith can act like a drug, a thing that brings us together but also keeps us in a never-ending cycle of "bread and circuses."

History Remixing

We imagine history into existence every day, shaping the world around us as we go. I remake histories with every piece. From a motley crew of tales tall and true. A melange of myths, signs and symbols. Every one ripe for my kitsch confections, which could all be legends one day.

Every piece I create is true. Sourced from truth and grounded by it. But never real. Reality's a fiction we're all subscribed to, which doesn't make it any less true. And that's the thing about the truth. Or the past. It moves in both directions. Myriad, in fact. Never sitting still or doing as it's told. Forever questioned, dissected, reframed and upended. Queered and inverted. Packaged and performed. Told, retold, adapted then sold. Evolving, like everything else. Which is why I like to think my art exists outside of time. Reaching for infinity. Not reality. A kaleidoscope of mish-mashed truths, which are only as surreal as we choose to make them...‍

Eternally Hungry

Born in Sydney, I spent my childhood surrounded by artists, oddballs and academics. They taught me to question everything. Respectfully and without fear.

Their coffee table books inspired my love of art and design. Vigorous debates over citywide dinner tables made me realise how complex the world is. Tales of lives spent abroad inspired my wanderlust. Their most important lesson? The value of being eternally hungry—that you should always leave enough room to taste something you've never experienced before.

Twenty-two countries and four continents later, I can find home anywhere with WiFi and a hearty chunk of intrigue. It's because of them, and I'm forever grateful.
