Stephen Page has always been incredibly generous allowing me the freedom to create the look of Bangarra’s costumes. For me Fire reflects the culmination of a long creative friendship that started when I designed the costumes for Stephen’s first commissioned ballet Moograh for the SDC.

This journey takes in all of Bangarra’s works from its early days to international success; collaborations with The Australian Ballet; The Olympic Arts Festival of the Dreaming and the Sydney 2000 Olympics.

I’ve been part of a wonderful family that I’m very proud to work alongside.
