Biography
The sad, strange and beautiful vulnerabilities existing within the human condition are all deep considerations in the work of artist Antonia Wright. Wright explores the various politics and comic facets of human experience through a multifarious, process-oriented practice combining video, performance, photography, poetry, sound, sculpture and perception. In her work she brings everything to the body, creating powerful visual metaphors and symbols that at times might appear ambivalent but are never obscure. Wright acknowledges the layers of societal taboos and barriers between her artistic choices, and pointedly pushes them into the public realm for the viewer to examine and assimilate.
