‘Balancing Act’ is, in other words, an attempted self portrait, employing not myself as subject but a model friend Magda Kazmierczak, designed to act as a vehicle to explore my personal experiences across cultures. I was born beneath a red flag in Poland, but I grew up steeped in the proud traditions of our once great and free nation. I’m deeply nostalgic for the distant and faded music of my old red accordion, the one I learned to play as a child. I shared some of my happiest times with that instrument and with a friend who did not survive our youth.
Above all, the image, while touching on memories which point to the past, is also a contemporary one. It speaks much of my life now in a new country, the possibilities of new birth and renewal in my current life in Australia as I attempt to balance all the aspects of myself, my life past and present.

My model in this photograph is Kirsty Hawkes, who is an interpretive artist based in Warrnambool. Kirsty and her practice are both unique. This photograph titled ‘Unicorns are real’, explores the ephemeral, surreal world of dreams and their connection to the world of the day to day. It also raises questions of the feminine and the notion of the mask, to be alien and strange and barefoot in the surf.

Wakaba Shudo is a young, emerging dancer and international student from Japan. This photograph titled ‘Emerging Dancer’ or tobu means to fly’ represents in one sense, the freedom of flight and of unrestrained movement. In another it highlights the striving, searching and daring which comes with the raw talent of youth.
Within Wakaba’s dance practice she is visibly attempting to harness her own individualism, freedom of expression and also a willingness to express herself beyond the boundaries of her own culture.

Nathan Curnow is a writer and poet, pictured here in the guise of a knight. Nathan is a warrior of words, lion hearted and brave, an artist who has always stayed true to himself and his art form. His real strength has always come through keeping pen and sword in accord and remaining committed to his calling. Nathan is pictured here at Ballarat’s fortress at the bottom of a hill, Kryal Castle.

Limited Edition Print
Visibly reflected within this landscape is the writers’ search for the solitary. Attracted to the expansiveness of the landscape, the writer associates the openness with a freedom, uncoupled from the vastness and heaviness of the knowledge a writer carries.
Here writer Robert Lewis is in the foreground, and behind him an abandoned house, a dark space without door or window, reflecting the other place of solitude from which one can always emerge.

In attempting to capture artist and researcher Amy Tsilemanis out in the natural landscape, the results were very surprising. This photograph captured Amy’s restless spirit along with her willingness to let her imagination take her away. There is also the sense of Amy being swept away, giving in to momentary potential for escape. Set against the dark lines and muted colours of the Australian landscape, it is clear that the darker side of our dreams and our desires have an attraction all of their own.
