19.01.2022 The 'windows' at Mary MacKillop College Leongatha are now complete and installed. They represent a view of our Australian landscape (slumped glass) through tree trunks (gold zinced metal frames). The frames open on piano hinges like French doors for access to fixed glass.

14.01.2022 My latest work A connected community was unveiled and blessed at Santa Maria College Northcote yesterday at an all school mass. It is a sculpture space that invites people to engage, sit and reflect. St Benedict’s belief in the rhythm of life is depicted in the stages of the Illawarra Flame Tree.

08.01.2022 ‘Sisters and Kindred Spirits’ was blessed and unveiled by Archbishop Peter A. Comensoli Archbishop of Melbourne at Padua College Mornington on April 30th. The work sits on a raised garden bed in the forecourt of the new senior school building - The Whyte Building named after the founding Sisters of Mercy and siblings, Mother Sebastian Whyte and Mother Bernard Whyte. They stand in bronze looking at a photo of their first acquisition in Mornington at the end of a table which is... also an outdoor altar. There is a circular stone seat for students to use and engage with the work and space and when viewed from above the work forms a Celtic Cross. They are sharing a cup of tea ( a Mercy symbol of hospitality since the time of Catherine McAuley) and there is a third cup, an invitation to us all. The band of Mercy Crosses is halo lit and the central pillar has a blue slumped glass top which also shines at night. At the base of the seat there is a quote from Catherine McAuley. We should be shining lamps, giving light to all around us. Thank you principal Anthony Banks and the fabulous team at Padua for a wonderful commission and experience. Jenny Steiner Artist See more
