I'm writing The BIG book!

Today is not my birthday today is my 1 year reversary of my BIG Book launch for my 30th birthday.

I've have set my next Soul Goal to turn the next incredible 12 month..ish into an adventure to unravel how I went from cow milker to accidentally creating the worlds longest photo, which then I accidentally turned in to a radical arts education model for isolated regional artist which then accidentally became an app to totally revolutionise and challenge the art's management and funding models in Australia.

So why Patreon? / what is Patreon.
Patreon is a membership platform that makes it easy for artists and creators to get paid, helping make our work reach more people and give us building blocks to a more sustainable practice.

I will be releasing a chapter a month for 1 year for you to Read and if you feel moved to...help me on my journey

For $10 a month you will receive exclusive 
>1 Chapter a month
> Be able to Edit / Feedback ^^
> Voting rights
> Access to all previous chapters

So why pay me to edit my work?
Because I need help, I can not and don't want to write this book alone. 
As a dyslexic learnt english not through pen and paper but through conversations with everyone around me. I have to ask questions from lots of people from lots perspectives with lots of knowledge about lots of things.

What you might read or interpret in my work with be different from anyone else and that is what I value the most in the world. How different we all are and how import that really is.
I want you to be apart of this with me, share my highs and my lows learn what I learn about myself and what it takes to publish a book. I want us over the next year to craft this together.

Please check out my page it will be a evolving space over the next months and I can't wait to share this new exciting chapter with ya'll

BIG BIG LOVE

Conscious Image Making Workshop

Transforming raw creative energy into building blocks of a creative practice by focusing on intuition and confidence rather than expensive equipment and years of study.

1. How and Why - camera technics, light, shade, composition and subject - This workshop will focus on black and white digital photography. We explore photographic styles, messages understanding what we like and what we don't like and why. This about discovering what makes you happy

2. Process to Print - digital enhancement, photo processing and printing - Participant will download their photos, and learn how to edit their work to find the best ones. We explore digital software and basic tips to get the best prints. We also explore judgement of ourselves and others work.

3. Top Shoots - mounting techniques for exhibitions, and how to shamelessly self-promote with all the propaganda using local outlets and social media.

Exhibition - Curate and hang photographs, organize and host a community event, prepare artist statements and learn how to talk and sell work, network and connect to the extended local community.

 

Float/3Feb

With a heavy heart, I have decided to withdraw as curator of the Fin-Ish Exhibition at Lake Tyers House on Feb 3 due to a conflict of personal ethics and values of my own arts and professional practice.

On Friday the 26th I was informed and deeply concerned about the abuse of Aboriginal people during early white settlement at Lake Tyers House and the massacres that occurred nearby.
A history that is still felt by the indigenous people of Lake Tyers today.

I apologize to all the artist who have worked for 12 months on their Almanac's about Lake Tyers. I have enjoyed working & learning from you all & could not be prouder of the wonderful bodies of work & study you have produced.

This has been a very steep & intense learning experience for me on my responsibilities as a non-Indigenous custodian of Australia, a mentor & a conscious image maker.
The unfortunate timing so close to the event can only put down to my naivety, which is why I am extremely grateful the wonderful opportunity for practical learning community arts project like FLOAT creates for regional emerging artists like myself who have limited access to arts education.

The exhibition is now being curated by very capable hands of Josephine Jakobi and Getzel Gary Yelen . If you need more information or question about the exhibition please contact project manager Andrea Lane andrealane@bigpond.com
