Jason Christopher
Jason Christopher is a local Sydney artist whose works have spanned over 20 years, achieving wide recognition throughout the art community. Most recently Jason was announced as a finalist for the 2012 Wynne Prize. He has also been awarded the 2011 Special Commendation Award – Woollahra Small Sculpture Prize, 2011 David Harold Tribe Sculpture Award and received a Special Commendation Award in the 2010 Woollahra Small Sculpture Prize. Jason also had works exhibited in the 2011 RBS Emerging Artist Award.
Jason’s works are a satirical exploration into possible futures. His works comment on our diminished sense of reality. Drawing on his vast experience in the film industry and industrial design, Jason’s work focuses on new technologies and advancements in science that portray an array of possible future outcomes through the incorporation of mixed media work combining sound and video. The use of cutting edge technologies, along with attention to detail through the use of mass production fabrication techniques, produces works that look as if they have arrived off the production line. The works pose questions to do with the cause and effect of technological advancements and how they have impacted our physical and cultural evolution.
