Exhibition Title: SOUL SHAPED DEVOLUTION II
Artist: JON DENARO
As a West Australian sculptor & painter, Jon Denaro’s professional art practice spans 34 years of investigation and exhibitions, including artworks for the public realm.
Jon creates contemporary paintings & metal sculptures often finding inspiration in found objects that play an intricate part in the story of the resulting piece of art.
His artworks are characterised by exploratory idiosyncratic ideas within the genre of ‘made by the hand of the artist’ as opposed to the seamless quality of industrialisation and technology.
The dynamic result is a play of objects, shapes and colour, often with an underlay of biological and physiological narratives.
Jon’s portfolio of works include 40 public sculpture commissions, 22 solo exhibitions, 30 group exhibitions as
well as participating in 11 Sculpture by the Sea Cottesloe exhibitions and 2 Sculpture by the Sea Bondi
exhibitions. His public art sculptures range from 10m high stand-alone works, to 100 sqm integrated facades and small scale functional bike racks.
