Research Statement
All ways fire she gives is a poetic essay created as an invited response to Amanda Bells work in the John Stringer Prize, 2022 and published by Westerly. Developed through embodied, place-based writing, the essay engages with memory fragments, site-specific reflection, and intertextual connections with artworks by Amanda Bell and Bruno Booth. Moving between Katanning and Kaarta Koomba, and between text and performance, the work is enriched by two invited live readings at the John Curtin Gallery and launch of Westerly Vol 68. This interplay between embodied writing and performance extends the reach of the work, inviting active engagement and shared experience.
