Phillip Briant

Phillip Briant’s paintings are grounded in the Australian continent and the Pacific. His works often focus on our relationship to the natural world with all its immediate climatic challenges as well as migrants, refugees and tourists moving across the Australian landscape.

Phillip’s intuitive feeling for colour gives his paintings their particular affinity with the Southern Hemisphere. He grew up in Melbourne, studied Arts at Monash University, then Visual Arts at Sydney College of the Arts. He lives in Sydney and has exhibited extensively since 1988.
