History

The Sydney Stormwater Trust does not have sufficient money in 2005 to assist North Sydney, Willoughby and Mosman Councils to clean up the waterways discharging into Sydney Harbour. The incidents of pollution of the waterways are escalating and Australia will not join the Kyoto Protocol. We need to clean up the Acts and the way we do things.
Exhibitions: ‘Aquamarine’ artist’s solo show at Mosman Art Gallery 2005, SAQA ‘s ‘Transformations: Artist’s working with Fibre’ exhibition 2006 in August, Birmingham England and 2007 in USA
