"The 'strangeness' itself is apparent but the mechanism of its construction is not. One senses a slight oddness, a remove from the apparent known but the engagement engendered is not intruded upon by artifice or any sense of obvious or overt manipulation. One is held, time suspends, the elemental aspect of the work, the 'sensate', is dominant in the experience. Bivalve exemplifies this character completely.

The abiding 'content' referent which ties fro and to together is water. Water moving – forward, backwards, speeding up into abstraction (Channel, 2008); water flowing sensuously over the bulbous lips of a sink edge in the exquisitely sexual Smouldering (2008) in which the artist neatly conflates the flowing water with the smoke which prolonged exposure with the work may suggest. This is highly 'physical' work, replete with sensuality and carefully mediated allusion."

In Awash, reclaimed, ceramic hand basins, their backs enamelled, are paired to appear as clam-like forms. Twenty six were situated across 300 meters of tidal water stretching from the oyster shell-encrusted shore out to a reef, the performative installation alternately exposed then concealed by the tide, and activated by changing light. These domestic objects are transformed by their new context, assimilated by the ever-changing environment, setting in motion the imagination.

Coinciding with the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race, Fleet comprised fifty reclaimed, ceramic hand basins, their backs enamelled to form a continuous surface, situated upright at the mean height of the shifting tidal water and so alternately exposed and submerged at low and high tide. Reflected light rippled across the gleaming forms as across the hulls of boats, at the same time evoking the billowing sails of the racing yachts. As with Awash, time was allowed to structure the work.
