Freÿa Black is a Melbourne based artist, with a background in performance, object design, video/sound and installation.
Freÿa’s artistic practice is a conceptual exploration of the passage of affect that exists between artist and art process, artist and observer and the individual in the environment. In consideration of these relationships her work seeks to reveal how precognitive thought and subjectively experienced feeling, or Affects, may be communicated and shared through an interdisciplinary art practice.
In her approach to practice Freÿa seeks to examine her own methods of art-making, which are often driven by an idea or concept that is not fully recognised or acknowledged in the process but rather felt intuitively. These concepts are informed by ideas surrounding perpetual delay, repetitions and cycles of creation, manifestation and decay.
Freÿa graduated from RMIT University School of Art in 2015 with a BFA and BFA Honours and was subsequently the recipient of the 2015 RMIT Honours Travelling Scholarship Grant.
