GENESIS
An exhibition of new paintings by Beastman
‘Genesis’ is the latest instalment in the ongoing body of artwork by Sydney-based artist Beastman (Bradley Eastman). This much anticipated exhibition features a series of new paintings on wood further progressing the artist’s distinctive style and exploring concepts surrounding the origins of life. These vibrant, geometric and impressive paintings range in size from small to large, reflecting themes of generation and growth in the natural world, whilst communicating the futuristic and overwhelming idea of nature coming to life in a way we could have never imagined. The deities featured in Beastman’s ambitious new works are a representation of lifeforms in nature progressing beyond the boundaries of our imagination, when the cosmic forces of nature eventually reveal the irrelevance of humanity in the universe.

One of the most distinctive and prolific emerging artists in Australia, and one third of creative group The Hours, Beastman has exhibited extensively throughout Australia, as well as in the UK, USA, Germany, Hong Kong and New Zealand. He has curated and directed numerous art exhibitions and projects, has designed graphics for various brands including Element, The Art Park, Longview, Stone & Wood and Smirnoff, and has also been commissioned to create artwork for Hyundai, Red Bull, Campaign Monitor, Mini, Facebook, Tiger Beer and Huawei. Beastman was named Best Artist at the 2010 Sydney Music, Arts & Culture (SMAC) Awards and his large mural works can be found all over Australia and in London, Berlin, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Tel Aviv and New York.
