Biography
Tim Storrier is a prominent Australian artist born on February 13, 1949, in Sydney. Known for his evocative and often surreal landscapes, Storrier has made a significant mark in the contemporary art world with his unique style that blends traditional landscape painting with elements of abstraction and symbolism. His works often explore themes of the Australian outback, capturing its vastness and mystery through a distinctive use of light and color. Storrier's career is highlighted by several prestigious awards, including the 2012 Archibald Prize for his self-portrait 'The Histrionic Wayfarer (after Bosch)', which drew inspiration from Hieronymus Bosch's 'The Wayfarer'. This work, like many of Storrier's, features a solitary figure embarking on a metaphysical journey, laden with symbolic objects. In 2017, he also won the Doug Moran National Portrait Prize with 'The Lunar Savant', further cementing his reputation as a leading figure in Australian art. Collectors are drawn to Storrier's work for its compelling narrative quality and technical mastery.
