Dean Ansell is a multidisciplinary artist of Melanesian (Rigorabana, Balawaia, Papua New Guinea), Maltese, and European descent living and practicing in Meanjin. His practice is a material-oriented investigation into concepts of time, place, memory, and transformation; using the body, the earth, and its atmosphere at different points in the works’ creation. They are interventions that are physically engaged with to connect to Ansell’s cultural heritage and motherland.
