Craig Walsh

Craig Walsh is fast becoming a key player in the confirmation of Australia as a leader in video art/ manipulation.  Walsh was born in 1969 and lives and works in Brisbane, Queensland.  He is an installation artist who has exhibited and collaborated both nationally and internationally and is primarily interested in site-specific projects and the exploration of alternative contexts for contemporary art.  His work often utilizes projection in response to existing environments and contexts.  His interest in audience engagement has inspired the recent voyeuristic projection works.  Walsh has been awarded international residencies and has exhibited through Asia.  He has produced work for festival environments and has recently completed a range of permanent and temporal public art commissions in Australia.
