About

Eduardo Wolfe-Alegria interprets his memories and encounters through a surrealistic lens, drawing from tropes of mythology and fantasy to create imagery that is at once anthropomorphic, metamorphic and psychedelic. Laced with a distinctly queer sense of camp and humour his work seeks to remind us of our connection to the more than human world, its seen and unseen forces and to suggest an enchanted worldview as one which might enrich our lived experience.

Eduardo Wolfe-Alegria lives and works on Gadigal land, Sydney. He completed an MFA at Sydney College of the Arts in 2014 and has exhibited in numerous galleries around Australia since then. He has been a finalist in several prizes including the Hazelhurst Art on Paper Award and has held solo exhibitions, including Opening Ceremony at Passage Gallery, Sydney. He has participated in group exhibitions at Firsdraft Gallery, Sydney and has been curated into a number of group shows including Painting Now at Michael Reid Gallery Sydney, which featured a group of cutting edge contemporary Australian painters as well as The impossibility of the Real at CBD Gallery, Sydney curated by Michelle Chanique. He currently has a solo show OIGALL PROJECTS, Naarm/Melbourne. His work is held in private collections nationally and internationally. He also teaches at the the School of Design, University of Technology, Sydney.
