Timeline

  • "Upon first observation of this photograph, two aspects significantly caught my attention. The dominant role of “the smile” and the use of “ice”. I became interested in the gesture of the smile, the power it holds and the effect it can have on people. Personally, it reflects feelings of warmth, welcome and comfort.
    I planned to respond to this photograph by using the media of ice, and the gesture of the smile. I aimed to create a piece reflecting an unfamiliar quality of “the smile”, something cold, gruesome and revolting and at the same time signifying notions of pain and risk.”

  • "I decided to look into the emotion of the boy as he jumps off the pier, focusing on the lack of security and that in-between space which reflects the liminal space, the transition between the known safe places to the unfamiliar state."

  • In choosing this photograph I saw it as my way of paying tribute to the poet Michael Hartnett. I’m from Newcastle West and a fan of his poetry and also I worked in North Quay for many years and the river holds many memories for me.
