PALMER is thrilled to present FEED, a new body of work by Melbourne based artist, Jonathan Crowther from Wednesday 24 May - Saturday 17 June 2017. 

Jonathan Crowther is an award winning artist being the recipient of the Eutick Memorial Still Life Award and the Churchie National Emerging Art Prize. He completed a Masters in Contemporary Art from the Victorian College of the Arts in 2014 and in the following year was awarded an Artstart Grant from the Australia Council. He has been chosen as a finalist for a number of prizes including the Geelong Contemporary Art Prize, the Substation Contemporary Art Prize and the Bayside Acquisitive Art Prize among others.

Jonathan Crowther’s latest collection of work references the changing landscape of image consumption and the the way we engage with imagery through our digital devices and social media feeds. Utilising imagery from his own device and feeds Crowther has constructed a series of paintings that traverse this digital landscape. Continuing the contemporary conversation between photography and painting Crowther creates hyperreal images that explore our relationship with the screen and the world around us.
