Todd Hunter was born in 1972. He has been a practicing artist since 1991, with his first solo exhibition in 1994, having studied art history and trained at the Julian Ashton Art School in Sydney after completing a visual arts degree at Griffith University in Brisbane.
Todd Hunter is an alchemist of form. Neither strictly speaking a figurative or abstract artist, he takes the colours and shapes of the natural world and pushes them through the blender of his fecund imagination. In many ways it is a ruse; we see a landscape or a figure even though he actively avoids the literal rendering of tree and sky, or sometimes the human form, but they are clearly, vividly there.
His work features in private collections throughout Asia, Europe, Australia, USA and South America, as well as corporate, consular and national collections in Australia and he has had several successful nominations to major Australian art prizes.
