Thomas Minchinton

Bachelor of Fine Arts (Painting)

Thomas Minchinton’s practice expands across sculpture, painting, video, Computer Generated Imagery and performance. His installations are often a way to hold together a multiplicity of elements in invisible parenthesis. Minchinton’s CGI video work seek to confuse our common understandings of identification. He combines 3D animation, sound, and animation in an attempt to put auditory and visual senses into a state of hypervigilance emulating internal discomfort and conflict. Minchinton’s concern is for the embodied circumstance which continues to diminish in the face of increased sanitisation and the dependency on digital interfaces.
