BIO

Andreas Buchwaldt is an artist and educator working in the field of sculpture, installation and digital new media. Currently, he is completing a PhD in Visual Culture at Western University, looking at the depiction of labour protest in simulation based art practices, as well as its historical depiction in time based media. Studio work coming from this investigation engages with notions of reenactment, the archive, anachronism and precarity. Buchwaldt has taught visual art at several Canadian universities, delivering courses in drawing, sculpture, and the integration of electronics into art via light, motion, and sound. His work has been funded by several national and provincial organizations, including the Canada Council, SSHRC and the Ontario Arts Council. Exhibitions of note include Cloud Painter (2022) in collaboration with artist Joshua Vettivelu at Trinity Square Video, Hiding in Plain Sight (2021) with the Embassy Cultural House collective at the CONTACT Photography Festival and Tuesday Night (2019) at AKA Gallery in collaboration with theatre artist Joel Bernbaum and musician Lancelot Knight.
