Georgia is interested in creative processes, aesthetic and immediate physical experiences. She believes the physical encounter is essential to portray the complex experience of being human. In her practice, Georgia works with a specialised noticing and managing of sensation, space and time, while engaging in a constant dialogue between inner body (memory, senses and imagination) and external environment (light, sound, architecture).

Georgia was the recipient of the Ian Potter Cultural Trust grant, Arts Queensland’s Individuals Fund, University of Melbourne Global Scholarship, and the Norma De Gruchy Award.
