TV Moore has developed a singular artistic practice that critically engages with the expressive potentials of the moving image through painting, photography, sculpture and installation. Using psychological space, performance, narrative and non-narrative structures, Moore's work seeks out stories within stories, meshing history and mythology as well as the exploration of individual and group ritual and thinking. His aesthetic is intensely color-saturated, laden with diverse references in order to create emotive works that appear as convergences of energy, anxiety, pleasure, temptation and danger.
Moore emerged onto the Australian art scene as part of a generation of artists that pioneered a new wave of video art in the early 2000s. His work has been nationally and internationally recognised with major achievements and career highlights including a survey exhibition, TV Moore’s Rum Jungle, at Campbelltown Arts Centre (2014); and With Love & Squalor, a major solo exhibition at the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (2015). Moore has also participated in numerous group exhibitions surveying contemporary art, including the 16th and 19th Sydney Biennales; the Busan Biennale; T1: The Pantagruel Syndrome, and the Turin Triennale. He is recipient of the Anne Landa Award for Video and New Media Arts, Art Gallery of New South Wales, and a recipient of the Anne and Gordon Samstag International Visual Arts Scholarship. Moore’s work is held in public and private collections in Australia and North America.
