Kurt Brereton is a digital media artist, writer and creative arts and design academic. Widely exhibited in Australia and overseas, he works in a variety of media including oil painting, embroidered paintings, sculpture and photography. “My work is concerned with the local natural and cultural ecology of Currarong and surroundings. My work seeks to draw the viewer into the details of being inside the particularities of a place - littoral living of marine forest mangroves, beach and sea; bushfire regrowth of life and the passings. I construct image maps that mark dramatic and ordinary events of equal significance.”
