Ian Strange

Ian Strange is from Western Australia and now lives and works between Melbourne and New York. He is best known for community-based, monumental, site-specific architectural interventions carried out in the United States and New Zealand, in which he alters full-scale residential homes to reveal layers of history and aspiration hidden behind the conventional facades of suburban life. The resulting film and photographic works have been exhibited extensively, including solo exhibitions at the National Gallery of Victoria and Canterbury Museum. Strange has on-going collaborations with the contemporary dance company Chunky Move and its Dutch creative director Anouk Van Dijk, and with American fashion designer and artist Virgil Abloh.
