In 2004 I printed my first catalogue; the pink one. 1500 copies, which were distributed by 2006. When the New Goff printery in Belgium offered to help me with the next catalogue, I decided to stay with the format and structure of this first one.

This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body.

"In 2004 I printed my first catalogue; the pink one. 1500 copies, which were distributed by 2006. When the New Goff printery in Belgium offered to help me with the next catalogue, I decided to stay with the format and structure of this first one. Cover: digital drawing; inside cover: workbench at the time of catalogue production, inside back cover: materials. One good text, my short statement and a photographic journey that should work a bit like a film. These catalogues will become twice as thick each time I print them, which I hope to do every 6-7 years. I aim to follow this format throughout my life, and when the final one in this series is printed I would like to make a box that they all fit in. This catalogue includes singular pieces, drawings and photographs as well as documentation of my three main preoccupations from the past 7 years."
