Artist's Statement

Joshua Copland

With his material practice stemming from an initial depiction of archiving the post-war suburban Australian household from an ongoing series dubbed ‘Suburban Australiana,’ Copland's practice has pushed into the realms of depicting notions of grief, body and existence through a multitude of mediums.

 

This work moves to multimedia works through radio frequencies projected to cathode-ray tube televisions and utilising materials of the home such as building substances and objects of comfort.

 

His practice emits an eerie yet familiar setting of the domestic space in an urge to discuss livelihood and bodily experiences represented by indexic traces via materials such as deconstructed chairs, foam and print. Copland's practice invites the viewer to ponder the absorption of lived experience through inanimate objects as they animate through mediation of the material.
