Key areas of interest include the legacies of colonialism in visual culture; the rhetoric of the image; and the concept of terror as a response to the other. He is represented by MARS Gallery (Melbourne). He has held solo exhibitions and individual screenings at the Australian Centre for The Moving Image (Melbourne); MARS Gallery (Melbourne); Perth Centre for Contemporary Photography (Perth); and multiple artist run spaces. His work has been included in group exhibitions at Art Central Hong Kong (Hong Kong); Torrance Art Museum (Los Angeles); WRO Media Art Biennale (Wroclaw); Hong-Gah Museum (Taipei); Australian Centre For the Moving Image (Melbourne); Hazelhurst Regional Gallery (Sydney); Careof (Milan); Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre (Sydney); and NAS Gallery (Sydney).
