Rory Wray-McCann
Rory is an underground miner who has lived on the West Coast for nearly three decades, working and helping to raise and fund a family of three. He ‘got out of the black rabbit game a while ago’ and rebadged himself as a ‘surface tip rat with a creative bent’. He uses the materials of the Tasmanian landscape, mainly rocks and crystals, either found, plundered or donated from friends as his pallette. He then binds them together in concrete and leaves them to weather and metamorphose outdoors into stand-alone cosmological concepts that are formed during reconstruction.
