Description

Greg Creek’s practice represents a political perspective on personal and public histories, engaging narrative, allegory and iconographies inflected with specific, local experience.

His projects manifests ideas in various ways, using body forms and traces, screen printed samples, cut-out sections, painterly stains and scumbles, and positive-negative inversions of on cut raw canvas, on desktop paper grounds or as room works.

Works are often composites: collaged so that the surface reads both as a unified narrative structure and as a repaired corpus. In them Creek layers abstract and figurative, colourist and tonal affects that intensify the pictorial space. Figurative fragments emerge from interior and exterior spaces often sourced in actual experience. They bear witness to the entanglements of contemporary cultures and the complexities of transformation, identity and the nature of representation itself.
