Biography

David Eastwood is a Senior Lecturer at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) in the School of Art & Design. His academic practice focuses primarily on drawing and painting, exploring the genre of interior spaces through the creation of composite images that reconfigure spatio-temporalities. His research examines the 'afterlife' of artists' studios and how posthumous museum artifacts can reshape modernist understandings of relationships between studios and contemporary art practices. Eastwood completed his PhD in 2018, proposing a nuanced reinterpretation of the artist's studio and its materiality, drawing upon concepts from Gilles Deleuze and new materialism. He has supervised numerous postgraduate candidates across various disciplines and has a continuing interest in model-making as a tool for imaging practices. Eastwood has exhibited extensively in solo and group shows, including at the Robin Gibson Gallery.
