Rhiana Griffith

Rhiana Jade Griffith, hailing from the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia, initiated her career in modeling at a young age, participating in runway shows and catalog advertisements before transitioning to television commercials. Her acting debut came with a guest role on the Australian medical drama *Children's Hospital*, followed by her first film role as Mercia in the 1998 feature *15 Amore*. Shortly after, she achieved recognition as the winner of ModelQuest98's Grand Final for the 12-to-15 age category and landed the role of "Jack" in the science fiction film *Pitch Black*.

In 2004, Griffith expanded her creative pursuits into the art world, presenting her first solo exhibition, *Chrysalis*, at the Tighes Hill Gallery in Newcastle, Australia, followed by *A Month in Kaos* at the Surry Hills Cafe 249 in Sydney later that year. She also appeared in the short film *A Whole New You* and guest-starred on the popular series *All Saints*. Notably, she portrayed Barbarella in promotional materials for the Flickerfest film festival.

The year 2005 marked the launch of her third art exhibition, *Sibling Revelry*, a collaborative project with her brother, poet Damien Griffith, which included a limited-edition book that paired her illustrations with his poetry. Additionally, she participated in a Wearable Art Festival and planned to release a clothing line later that year. Griffith began working on a children’s book and starred as Clare Newell in the short film *Wrong Answer*, which is set to continue in the psychological thriller *Volunteer*, directed by JD Cohen.
