Phillip George

Phillip George has held 32 solo exhibitions and over 100 group exhibitions nationally and internationally. Exhibitions include the Macedonian Museum of Contemporary Art Greece, Art Tower Agora Athens, and Stills Gallery Sydney, Museum of Contemporary Art Sydney, Australian Centre for Photography, Sydney, National Gallery of Thailand, Bangkok, Singapore Art Museum, Singapore and National Gallery of Australia. His work draws connections between Australian beach culture and the fractured, turbulent zones of the Middle East.. His drawing in Water series is a departure from stationary one-eyed perception; here the combination of many pictures in the brain are orchestrated into different and fluid relational spatialities. It’s not a classical gaze inherited from Renaissance straight lines. The sea is a mirror that reflects and repeats our broken images. Its fluctuating surfaces can be feathered or quartzy, crimped and moiréed.
