In May 2026 I spent six days in residence at The Corridor Project, a not-for-profit arts and cultural organisation sited on 130 acres of granite-strewn country beside the Lachlan-Galari river.
As creatives we can often get swept up in the act of producing, and forget how important it is to step away from the studio and simply arrive. There are no words to describe the insights that came from this week. Being immersed in an unfamiliar landscape with an incredible crew of artists, working on paper, creating walking drawings, and sitting around the dinner table in long conversations about practice.
The small works on paper I made at The Corridor Project became less about excavating the landscape, and more about arriving within it. They are the residue of an encounter, stories told with the soles of my feet en plein air, and they are part of a new exploration I am calling Somatic Cartographies.
A critique session with Lucy Stranger pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best possible way, and I came home wanting to imagine these little beauties at scale.
I’m so grateful to The Corridor Project and to the artists I shared the week with — Marisabel Gonzalez, Susie Dureau, Phoebe Stone, Eve Bracewell, and Andres Lamberti.
Until we return next time.
