favourite art moment ? Chancing upon a the remains of a temporary installation I had made in the Gawler Ranges 3 years after the project and discovering that other people had built and re-built versions of it since I had left it. Magic.
favourite artist ? Anyone active and making a difference
member since the beginning on and off depending on my income because it is important to have a voice. It is the only way we will make a difference.
