Dr Sally Molloy
Academic, Griffith University: Painting & Observation, Artist.
Sally is a Meanjin/Brisbane based artist. Her paintings and other creative outputs utilise visual cues and clues from her white surburban everyday life to explore ongoing contexts of colonisation. Often awkwardly humorous and infused with uneasy reverence, her work attempts to deliver what she currently conceptualises as a "backyard critique" that uses humour, crummy techniques, and the detritus of everyday life to undermine postures and processes of distanced critically.
Sally is a recent PhD graduate from the Queensland College of Art where she currently teaches in the painting department. Her work has been exhibited widely in South East Queensland, as well as in Melbourne and Tokyo.
