VCA ART 2021

Callum Riley

Bachelor of Fine Arts (Drawing & Printmaking)

My practice centres on an exploration of colour and form in public space. Working with colour, I seek out and use vibrational moments in gradients to create a resonating atmosphere. I locate my works primarily in public urban spaces to engage with viewers from all walks of life. The works create moments of pause as a viewer comes across them, encouraging a brief moment of meditation through an experience of overwhelming colour.
