Bryce Anderson

Born 1991, Queensland, Australia. Lives and works in Naarm (Melbourne), Australia.

Bryce Anderson’s field of painting is interwoven with popular culture and art history. Producing among other things, figurative paintings, geometric abstractions and paper collages. Anderson works with visual content in a number of ways and in doing so aims to push against the traditional divergence between figuration and abstraction. He offers environments that navigate different periods and themes, attributing the potential of individual images to function today in a significant way.
