Work in progress for the Residency I'm currently undertaking at the Penrith Regional Gallery , in the House of Wonder studios. I'm collaborating with scientist Graeme Wong to create an evocative expression of both his research into the birth of stars and our conversations about his research. Did someone say molecular density of interstellar gas clouds?!

I have a show at Ferry Gallery in Bangkok.
"The Ferry Gallery is a public contemporary art space on privately owned ferry operating on the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok. The gallery was founded on January 2014 by Thai artist and entrepreneur, Kawita Vatanayankur, as a mean to promote the contemporary art scene in the capital city and to bring contemporary art to the masses." Thrilled to be showing at this amazing and exciting space.

Post Arctic residency, Pocantico Center, Rockefeller Brothers Fund, NY.
‘In autumn 2014, twenty-five artists boarded the tall ship Antigua for a two-week residency sailing the west coast of Spitsbergen, Svalbard located in the Arctic Circle. The Antigua reached 79°52 N, 011°48 E, just beyond Ny-Alesund, the world’s northernmost civilian settlement.
One of the artists, Daniel Kukla has initiated a follow up residency at The Pocantico Center of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund inviting fellow arctic residents Geoff Booras, Denise Iris, Sandra Kühne, Tamsin Relly Allison Rowe, and Katie Turnbull to participate.
Svalbard is an international territory with a unique history of exploration, land claiming and mapping in the name of resource exploitation and survival. The land has also been pursued for scientific discovery, physical challenge, artistic motivations and more recently, tourism. In light of this history, the artist’s motivations for undertaking the expedition provide a starting point for their Pocantico residency.
Coming from diverse and inter-disciplinary practices, the artists will have the opportunity to develop work – both individually and collaboratively – in response to their shared experience in the largely uninhabited Arctic landscape of glaciers, mountains and fjords. The group will investigate common themes within their practices from exploration, cartography and geology to temporality, impermanence and Climate Change.’

I'm very grateful for the support from The Copyright Agency’s Career Fund to attend courses at Harvestworks in New York City. I will develop skills and ideas around collaborative practice based on environmental data and explore the emerging field of micro-controllers and physical computing.
