About

I am an Australian visual artist based in Melbourne, Australia.

My work explores the Australian landscape. Through paint, I respond to how the landscape is felt and experienced, capturing its light, atmosphere, and structure.

Raised in a creative household, I was immersed in art from an early age, learning painting, drawing, and sculpture from my parents, artists Ron Eades and Lenore Boyd. I went on to study visual arts at Latrobe College of Art & Design and the Victorian College of the Arts (VCA) in Melbourne. In addition to my art practice, I hold a PhD in linguistics from the University of Melbourne. My academic career included working as a lecturer and field researcher, with a focus on the languages and cultures of Indigenous communities in Southeast Asia and southern Arabia. These experiences continue to shape my artistic perspective, enriching my relationship with nature and the landscape.
