Biography

Tania Ferrier is an Australian artist who has also lived and worked in New York. Her painting practice has expanded into the use of video to explore race relations in installations that transgress the boundaries between the art gallery and museum.

Recent video projects include “ The Last Resort “ 2011, “ Whitewash” 2012, and “ Talkback” 2015. Her work is held in many public collections including the Art Gallery of Western Australia. She has been the recipient of a number of grants and residencies in the United States and Australia.

Tania also works in the film industry in various roles in the Art Department. Noteably, she designed the cult feature, “ Clean, Shaven”, which premiered at 1994 Cannes Film Festival and was nominated for Production Design on “ Wadjemup. Black Prison, White Playground“ 2014 at the Western Australian Film Awards.

Her most recent work “ Talkback “ brings together a cross cultural exploration on race and identity. Video collage elements will screen as part of a larger exhibition at the Academy of Fine Arts in Lynchburg, Virginia in August, 2015.
