DUKE MITCHELL
Luke’s interdisciplinary work looks to explore the world through a curatorial lens. These inquiries begin through photography and painting, but take shape across multiple and unlimited forms. His artworks combine art historical themes with observations and humour, resulting in original objects that tell a story. A key attribute of the work and process is ‘re-purposing’ - Luke not only uses found objects for much of his work but also continues to re-purpose his own creations. Each piece continues to evolve until it is no longer in the artist’s possession, with some work regenerating for over 10 years.
This page includes original paintings and mixed media art. Hand-finished prints, photography and other work sold in editions can be found on Luke’s PRINTS page.
