Views from the Wonderchair

From 2020 to 2022 I focused on designing and building, saving for and purchasing equipment for what I have called my WONDERCHAIR, a powered wheelchair with film, sound, lighting and projection enhancements.

In 2022, I was lucky to receive an Arts and Disability Initiative grant from Creative Australia for the VIEWS FROM THE WONDERCHAIR project for all of 2023 and some of 2024.

Mentored by long term film and sound mentor, Lincoln Mackinnon and video projection mapping and design artist, Roly Skender, I worked on different explorations to develop content to project, and sound to play from a self-designed multi-disciplinary wheelchair designed to support my agency as a film maker and artist.

VIEWS FROM THE WONDERCHAIR has supported my artistic and digital skills development and at the same time, helped me build my networks with local artists I admire. It has also supported me to generate new artistic work and concepts to offer local festivals and events beyond the project scope.
