Lucy is known by us as a tutor in communication department at Insearch, but her life is way richer than sitting in the classroom and lecture: she is also a musician who plays piano and keyboard in the very well known Australian Rock 'n Roll band "Rose Tatoo" , a photographer who used to have a personal exhibition and a film maker whose film got invited to screen at 2007 Melbourne international film festival.
For Lucy, photography and music are her ways of expression and the way that she keeps her imagination and creativity. She likes to play piano when she got spare time, this make she feel calm and think.
Different from her music style, she chose to capture tree barks as her favourite objects. The pictures are diverse, full of natural but unusual colours and through the lens, viewers could feel the natural calm and spirit that Lucy wants to introduce. She also named all of her photos, this make the images vivid and the stories behind it could be told and understand with only a few words.
Actually, the idea of taking photos of tree barks is not new to Lucy, she came up with this idea long time before and right after she finished producing a documentary about Rock 'n Roll music, she started the journey of exploring the beauty of Australian native nature and took trees as her models. These two topics formed a contract, but also created the possibility for Lucy to expand her creativity. In terms of combining her photography works and music, she tends to choose rather lighter and natural music style for her photography.

Thanks to Lucy's time and these wonderful pictures.
