Jimmy Gorham comes from Wellington and has been involved in events work for the last five years, in everything from site management to roadie. Now deeply immersed in the world of scaffolding managing a scaffolding yard in Lower Hutt, Jimmy still finds time to rub shoulders with kids who never grow up and never wash their black jeans. Every now and then swinging spanners, stretching leckie, or smashing guitars. Jimmy was an integral part of Camp Curious in 2015 for Splore Festival.

She received her Master of Fine Arts Degree from Massey University, and has works in collections throughout New Zealand, Australia, South-east Asia, Switzerland and the USA.
