BEASTMAN
Nine Lives is proud to announce our latest show by sydney artist Brad Eastman aka Beastman. Opening night is Friday April 17 and continues through to April 30.
"Beastman (Brad Eastman) is an artist, designer and photographer based in Sydney, Australia. Using acrylic and ink he produces intricately detailed artworks on canvas and wood, depicting a parallel world of scaly skinned, bold outlined, beast-like characters struggling to deal with feelings of anger, stress, jealousy, lust, confusion and paranoia.
Years of skateboarding has strongly influenced Beastman's characters, concepts and unique style, developed over a decade of drawing in sketchbooks and shooting photos. Heraldry, family, friendship, human influence on nature, the ocean, violence, symmetry, spirits, birth and the afterlife are all themes which are evident in his artwork.
Beastman has exhibited in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Wellington and London and has been featured in publications such as Empty, Semi-Permanent, Deadbeat, Oh Really, Edtn, Blanket and more. Beastman has designed skateboards and graphics for various brands including Amnesia,Folklore, Mambo and Mingo Lamberti. His 35mm colour and black & white photography has been published in magazines such as ASM and Wooden Toy.
Beastman is also the founder, editor and designer of the online publication [weAREtheIMAGEmakers] - www.watim.com - which features interviews with Australian artists, illustrators and photographers. He also curates, organises and promotes various art exhibitions all over Australia such as the annual WATIM 12x12 Exhibition and more." - www.beastman.com.au
