DEAN DE LANDRE

LAB, 2020


Dean De Landre is a painter interested in the intersection between nostalgia, popular culture and the natural world. Through appropriating found imagery along with his own, De Landre explores how nature is depicted within books, television, video games and other cultural ephemera. By removing these images from their original context there is the potential to experience them in a new-found way.

Dean De Landre currently lives in Torquay with his partner Solveig and his dog Pepper. He completed a double degree of arts/visual arts at Monash University in 2017, received first class Honours at Deakin University in 2020 and is currently a PHD candidate at Deakin. Dean has exhibited in Melbourne, Sydney, overseas and has been a finalist in the Hornsby and Albany art prizes.
