Mason Kimber is a Sydney/Gadigal-based artist whose practice moves between textural painting, sculptural relief, and site-specific installations to explore the social dimension of architecture and its relation to memory. Manipulating the painted surface through processes of moulding, casting, and framing, he expands the language of painting through his re-imagination of the interior as a living labyrinth.
'We’re thrilled to welcome Mason Kimber to N.Smith Gallery. His practice moves fluidly between painting, relief, and architectural installation, with a sensitivity to memory and place that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant. Mason brings an exciting new dimension to the gallery program, and we look forward to supporting the next chapter of his career.' – N.
Kimber has been a finalist in the Sulman Prize, Churchie National Emerging Art Prize, Sunshine Coast Art Prize, and NSW Visual Arts Fellowship (Emerging) among others, and have been awarded studio residencies at Parramatta Artists Studios, Waverley Artists Studios and Artspace, Sydney. His work is held in the collections of Artbank and the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia.
