Daisy is a queer koorie artist, writer and worker who embraces the humour and humility of survival and belonging in a schismatic deep-fake post-truth context. Their recent projects address the escalating costs and devastating impacts of settler colonial carceral logic in Australia. Their work makes use of grounded theory to contribute critical insights into creative practice while expanding upon dialogues relative to their experience as an artist and storyteller.

Daisy’s practice fuses experimental sound, writing, video installation, and performance in response to psycho-politics and global conditioning. They offer sustainable ecosocial interruption and spirited challenges to the depravities of discipline within the cultic milieu of contemporary art. Their submergent approach and unapologetic critique forms part of an ongoing search for futures that haven’t already been redacted and/or destroyed. 

Daisy argues for the abolition of carceral cultures in art and education. Their research focuses on Indigenous Futurist methodologies and relational knowledge systems that contribute to anti-carceral resistance and ecosocial survival.

Their work has been presented at the Art Gallery of South Australia’s Ramsay Art Prize (2019), and the Parliament of NSW King & Wood Malleson Contemporary ATSI Art Award (2018). They have exhibited with Blak Dot Gallery, Gertrude Contemporary, Incinerator Gallery, Yapang Museum of Art and Culture, The Lock-up Artspace, Bus Projects and SEVENTH gallery. Their writing has been published with Rabbit Poetry Journal, Memo magazine, and UNprojects. 

Daisy currently works with La Trobe Art Institute on Dja Dja Wurrung Country in Bendigo, and as an artistic committee member with BUS projects on Woi Wurrung Country in Melbourne.
