Supporting artists through curation, mentoring, interviews and disability-led creative initiatives.
Alongside my artistic practice, I work to support the development, visibility and professional growth of artists within Western Australia’s creative community.
Through exhibition curation, artist interviews, mentoring and community engagement, I aim to create opportunities for artists to share their work, build confidence and connect with audiences. Much of this work focuses on supporting disabled and neurodivergent artists while contributing to a more accessible and inclusive arts sector.
These projects complement my own creative practice and reflect a commitment to building sustainable pathways for artists at different stages of their careers.

WHY THIS WORK MATTERS TO ME
I believe strong arts communities are built through collaboration, knowledge sharing and meaningful opportunities for participation.
Whether through curation, artist interviews, mentoring or community programs, my goal is to support artists in developing sustainable creative practices while contributing to a more accessible and inclusive arts sector.
This work sits alongside my own artistic practice and continues to inform projects that bring together creativity, accessibility and community engagement.
