Merryn Trevethan (AU)

Merryn Trevethan is an Australian artist currently based in Hong Kong, relocating in February 2021 after 7 years in Singapore. Her abstracted, hyper- saturated artworks are inspired by the constantly changing structure of cities. Through her paintings, spatial wall-drawings and murals, objects, and large-scale installation works she considers the uncertainties of human perception; examining how we how we see, navigate, record and relate experiences of negotiating space in public, urban environments.

Merryn graduated with an Masters of Fine Arts from Monash University, Melbourne (2005). Recent mural commissions include Esc Café in Causeway Bay, HK (2023), 637 Flinders St workplace, Melbourne, AU (2024) and a site-specific mural for the Australian Theatre for Young People at Pier 2, Sydney Harbour (2022). Recent exhibitions include Postmodern Tales at H Queens, Hong Kong, Superhuman Expedition, at Arthub Studios, London, UK and a collaborative exhibition with Sebastian Mary Tay at Comma Space, Singapore (2023).

In 2018, Merryn was a fellow of the Sam and Adele Golden Art Foundation Residency Program, New York (2018). She has held solo and group exhibitions in Australia, Singapore, USA and Hong Kong and China.

Merryn Trevethan 是一位澳洲藝術家，目前居住在香港，在新加坡工作7 年後於2021 年2 月移居。她的抽象、高飽和藝術作品的靈感來自於不斷變化的城市結構。透過她的繪畫、空間壁畫和壁畫她考慮了人類感知的不確定性；審視我們如何看待、導航、記錄和聯繫公共城市環境中的談判空間的經驗。

Merryn 畢業於墨爾本莫納什大學美術碩士學位（2005 年）。最近的壁畫委託包括香港銅鑼灣的 Esc Café（2023 年）、澳大利亞墨爾本弗林德斯街 637 號工作場所（2024 年）以及澳大利亞青年劇院於悉尼港 2 號碼頭的新址製作特定場地壁畫（2022 年）。最近的展覽包括香港 H Queens 的後現代小傳、英國倫敦 Arthub Studios 的 Super human Expedition 以及新加坡 Comma Space 與 Sebastian Mary Tay 的合作展覽（2023 年）。她是「Bus.Stop.Art」公共藝術項目中的十位藝術家（和聯合策展人）之一，該項目受國家藝術委員會委託，參加 2021 年新加坡藝術週。Merryn成為紐約Sam and Adele Golden Art Foundation駐留計畫的研究員（2018）。她曾在澳洲、新加坡、美國、香港和中國舉辦個展和群展。
