Grace Wood is an artist from Melbourne, Australia. In 2014, she graduated from the Victorian College of the Arts with a Bachelor of Fine Art (Honours). She has exhibited extensively in Australia. Wood primarily creates collage-based installations. Her work frequently dissects and comments on the internet archive, elitism in art history, and conventional displays of contemporary photography.

I nurture a sustainable practice that is informed by material investigations, bodily outcomes and emotional experiences. I attempt to translate these ephemeral self-reflections into imagery through painting in an expanded field and sculptural installation. Swaying and navigating between ecologies of tenderness, queer melancholy and stomach butterflies, I dance alongside imagined vibrant touches and strokes of anticipation.

I am an artist of Middle Eastern and European descent, born on Giabal land in southern Queensland and based in Narrm, Melbourne. I mostly work with photography but also use other materials when necessary as a means of twisting the codes and conventions of our relationship to images. I believe mainstream popular images are shaping our behaviours more than ever. I work to unpack and decode these images to make sense of culture and the power structures shaping shared desires.
