Leanne Waterhouse is a multi disciplinary artist living and creating on Dharawal Country. She uses walking and observation as a process to create written translations, vocal soundscapes, graphic scores and installations using found objects to physically and metaphorically explore sites. In 2017 Leanne completed a Master of Fine Art at RMIT, her MFA research investigates Moonee Ponds Creek as a site to formulate an inquiry into place – real or imagined – between the natural and artificial within an urban environment. Moonee Ponds Creek, an area that runs from urban Melbourne to the outer suburbs has an ongoing history of development, construction and attempted regeneration. Leanne uses this site to investigate the layering of human activity that has occurred within Melbourne’s urban landscape. She consider the intersections of the natural and the artificial, in particular how living things such as birds adapt to this specific ever changing environment. Leanne works a lot with collaboration. Contact: waterhouse.leanne@gmail.com |
