Philip Senior
Status: Transient
7 - 25 September 2022
G4
Opening Night
Friday 9 September | 6pm – 8pm
◼︎
Philip Senior has based his exhibition Status: Transient on the uncertainties people are experiencing by the phenomena of change vertigo in uncertain times coupled with our own transience.
A skirmish with mortality, while overseas in late 2018, has been the impetus for much of his recent image making. Not so much a response to his particular narrative but more on finding images to reflect our shared human fragility.
Artist Bio
From a young age Philip has been involved in the visual arts and, while he chose architecture as a career, he continued painting, drawing and exhibiting in Sydney throughout his adult life.
After moving to Bellingen, he has been involved in organising community art events with Arts network Bellingen as well as exhibiting in Berlin and in Sydney during Sydney Arts Month. He is a founding member of the cultural presentation group Sunday Bites, the Sydney/Bellingen art group VOX 4 and the Bellingen based art group, Collective Four.
His work is basically a continuing exploration of his understanding of what his world is. The layers of time – geological, cultural, political and personal – that inhabit his existence all play a part in providing impetus to find a visual mark reflecting where he is now.
