Aaron Glasson
Aaron Glasson (b. 1983) is a New Zealand born
multidisciplinary artist. Since completing a Bachelor’s
degree in Art and Design at the Auckland University of Technology in 2005 he has been exhibiting and creating public art works internationally. His diverse portfolio consists of participatory installations, paintings, drawings, sculpture, architecture, assemblage, murals and film.
Though working in a diverse array of mediums Glasson has developed an abstract visual language that unifies his practice as a whole. His paintings rooted in geometry but inspired by time spent in the wilderness offer glimpses into micro and macro environments. Similar forms are applied to large scale interactive site-specific installations that encourage viewer engagement and participation as well as functional objects that explore arts practical potential outside of traditional contexts.
