I am a creative working on Kaurna Yerta. I work across the expanded field of sculpture, performance art, voice, video, sound, sculptural installations, and writing. My work explores the human condition within the context of interpersonal relationships, speaking to humanity’s interconnectivity - not only with each other but across place, and ancestry (time), and species.
I performed my inaugural self-devised work, “Together We Are Apart,” at the 2019 Adelaide Fringe, followed by the multi-media and performance piece, “Peggy Buxton,” for History Week 2019. “Do You See What I See,” a full-length cross-platform interdisciplinary show, was created in partnership with Dance Hub SA and Arts SA. In 2021 Tarsha was shortlisted for a SALA award for her performance drawing installation “Unseen/Seen”, and in 2022 I had my first collaborative exhibition "One" at the Mill. “Unapologetic" was her debut cabaret, first performed in 2022, and written in mentorship with Amelia Ryan and Michael Griffiths.
My graduate work "Embracing Unravelling" (2023) sought to unlearn imperialism by remembering women ancestral stories. It will soon continue during SALA 2024 with community in "Hag-ia".
I acknowledge the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and pay my respect to Elders past and present.
