Brendan Lee is an Australian artist working in the
mediums of video installation and photography
Lee's art looks at the associations that are made
between notions of place, film and history. He
explores the relationships between the filmic
memory of significant cinematic locations and how
we interact with their historical weighing. In the
last few years, Lee has focused on Australian film
history and folklore in how we identify and
differentiate ourselves culturally from other
regions. Through constructed and discovered film
locations, Lee presents open ended questions about
identity through filmic narrative and tropes.
Lee's current videos aestheticize cinematic genres
and portray the underbelly of Australian culture
represented via film.
Lee is currently writing a novel on the history of
Australia to be adapted into a screenplay and has
recently completed an Australia Council residency
in Los Angeles.
