Inspiration for This Work

This calm, sunset view of Anzac Bridge from below hides the chaos and congestion that traverses the bridge deck, frustrating thousands daily. Bridges always reveal more about the nature of what they connect than their stoic and strong frames initially suggest.

Student Biography

I see myself as an artist, a designer and particularly a problem solver, with three main areas of practice: in web and interactive media, photomedia and digital video.

I was born in Hong Kong in 1985, where I spent my early childhood years, before moving to Sydney with my family in 1993. I have since steadily developed an interest in digital media, especially after being drawn to the new and exciting thing that was ‘the web’ in 1997 and also following my father’s interest in photography.

For me, interactive media is primarily about human interaction and designing user experiences that are engaging, yet highly functional and efficient at communicating. Even though I am adept at and still enjoy the technical and aesthetic sides of producing websites, I find it most challenging just trying to understand how people think. I can then design information architecture and rewarding experiences for visitors with this in mind.

In photomedia and digital video, I enjoy the opportunity to capture the world as I see i while sharing and observing everyone’s varying perspectives. I enjoy making documentary films, where I can document reality through stories that need to be told. I am also fascinated with colour and photograph a great deal of landscapes and architecture.

Hopefully the future will allow me to keep my options open with different projects in my areas of practice, including working internationally.
