VCA ART 2020

Brayden van Meurs

Honours

I currently live and study in Melbourne. I make sculptures, drawings, and sometimes paintings. Key conceptual concerns include flavours and crafts. Speaking to people on Runescape at the Grand Exchange, eating new foods and cooking are some things that inform the way in which I think about and make art. Future exhibitions include 'a thousand plateaus.......to graze' (with Jemi Gale) at Seventh Gallery and curatorial projects through Pee Pee Gallery.
