About me:
A little about me ... I am a quirky lady with big dreams...an artist, filmmaker, photographer, fashionista, bohemian, performer and music lover.
Being a photographer/filmmaker/artist I love to capture surreal, weird, enchanting, confronting and the mundane in my work. I have worked on everything from film clips, commercials, feature films, short films, fashion parades and TV shows. My works have been seen around the world and its great to be living my life doing what I love.
I have VJed(did live Video works) for some of my favourite DJ's including Carl Cox, Ferry Corsten and Felix Da house Cat, and Gotye in the past.
I also love making art where I do some cutesy illustrations with a dark edge.

I am getting back into street art and urban intervention again. Part of a drawing group in SA that has weekly meeting and projects... we even make zines you can order. Check it out

My last short film is named "The Catch". The film is a sexual thriller in which Troy a high school student is offered the choice of a safe normal life and another that offers excitement, sensuality and danger. Mischa is an older woman who stalks Troy leading to the unravelling of her sadidtic plans where they are taken to the extremes of trust, sexual exploration, masochism and destruction.
Check it out at www.thecatchmovie.com.
The website also has more about me, the film and its background.
here's some other links to me if you want to stay connected
Currently I am writing my feature script and I have a few projects on the cards for future film projects. Its exciting times ahead.
I am also still exhibiting and participating in art having been in many exhibitions across Australia and Internationally. In short I have my fingers in a few tasty pies and it keeps life interesting to say the least. I would love to collaborate with other creative people across the world.
I would like to meet vagabonds, artists, filmmakers, photographers, freaks, show ponies, lovers (not haters), performers, bohemians, philosophers, musicians, actors or anyone who is a little left of the middle and wants to live their life and not dream about it.
Anyone from around the world is welcome as I would love to collaborate on films, shows and exhibitions.
