Scott Eady has always and continues to make strong claims for an object-based sculptural practice, while or though laughing at or undercutting some of its associations and forms. As a maker of objects that interrogate and confound the nature and value of objects, Eady’s recent work has taken on a greater participatory dimension.
Exhibitions and projects include, Venice Biennale Collateral exhibition at Palazzo Bembo 2013, Auckland Art Fair project space, 2013, 100 Bikes Project: Gwangju, (The 9th Gwangju Biennale 2012 – Roundtable), The Obstinate Object, (City Gallery Wellington Te Whare Toi, 2012), 100 Bikes Project: Part 1 (The Dowse Art Museum, Lower Hutt, 2011), Play Off (Blue Oyster Art Project Space, Dunedin, 2011), Scott Eady (The Pah Homestead, Auckland, 2011), BRING IT ON!, (R H Gallery, Nelson 2010), Stupid Stupid Stupid Stupid Stupid Daddy (Mary Newton Gallery, Wellington, 2010), Lost at the Bottom of the World, (Sarjeant Gallery Te Whare O Rehua, Whanganui, 2010).
Eady is currently based in Dunedin, New Zealand and is Senior Lecturer of Sculpture at the Dunedin School of Art at Otago Polytechnic.
