James Grant

I grew up traveling with my family in several areas across northern and central Australia, including the Kimberly and Arnhem Land whilst living in Alice Springs and Darwin. I returned to Melbourne to start a Bachelor of Fine art with the Victorian College of the Arts which I completed in 2016 and have spent several years traveling and working. Like for many other artists, the lockdown forced a reset to my practice. In my recent collection of work, I have been drawn to the vibrancy and beauty of the area of Melbourne that I currently live in and its striking contrast to the rugged, regional landscapes I grew up with.
