Public Art
Some of the most exciting projects that I have been involved in over the past few years are public art projects, a few that I have completed by myself, but for the most part, as part of the Tamworth Regional Art Collective. The list now includes mosaic installations, murals and a light projection installation. If you are interested in a quote for your public art idea - please get in touch.

Tamworth Regional Art Collective
The Tamworth Regional Art Collective is a group of artists who first came together as volunteers to design and create an engaging art-filled play space for local children as part of the Tamworth Adventure Playground project. To our delight, it turned out that the collective passion for art, social change, and creating better communities made inspiring company, and we began seeking out other opportunities to get involved in community projects and public art as a group.
Our artists include Jody Blackwell, Jodie Herden, Karen Balsar, Emma Stilts, Leah Dryden and Joanne Stead.
We are currently planning a number of local Festival engagements and are looking for more collaborative opportunities.
