Work in progress… I am looking at ways of presen Work in progress… I am looking at ways of presenting a series of SX70 Polaroids I made in Venice in 1985.

I like the idea of an Octavio. I’m basing this on the work of the printer Aldus Manutius who founded a publishing house in Venice in 1494. Polaroids were not invented then but he did have the idea of making small editions that people could carry with them. The final dimensions will be a bit taller and skinnier than this, but it’s just a proof of concept of this stage. Also thinking about how the printing might work.

What’s Next for Team Dave?

In 2025 I'm working on a book based around a month I spent in Venice in 1995, as well as looking at new ways of rendering my ongoing low light seascape works.

In 2024 I began to develop ideas for some new work, which was exhibited in the Newmarch Gallery in May 2025.

2023 was mainly directed to working towards a solo show in August. This show formed part of the SALA (South Australian Living Artists) Festival and was held in Adelaide. It brought with it many wonderful things and made me very tired. I am now trying to recharge after three very challenging years. (Challenging, that is, by my standards.) I'm still working on a couple of series in 2024 though, and we'll see how that goes.

2021-22 saw the completion of a Masters Degree in Contemporary Art at UniSA. This was a return to full time study for the first time since 1984.
