She has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions at WestSpace, Melbourne (2014); the Indonesian Contemporary Art Network, Yogyakarta (2014); Australian Centre for the Moving Image, Melbourne (2013); and Campbelltown Arts Centre, Sydney (2007). For 48HR Incident Tawale will perform Celebrations and Sympathies, Studies in Culture Part 3, drawing links between the narratives and cultural expressions found within traditional Fijian Lali (wooden drums), popular musicals and Hip Hop culture.
