MICHAEL NEEDHAM
Michael Needham is a Melbourne based visual artist and lecturer in fine art at the Monash and Australian Catholic Universities. His practice primarily incorporates sculptural installation, drawing and architectural intervention.
Among other things, Needham’s work explores myth, belief and residual melancholia in the contemporary psyche. Recent exhibitions have probed a relationship between representation and death through a visual and spatial exploration of body-space and trace.
