Peter Blamey

He/him

Peter Blamey is a Sydney-based artist and musician. His practice is often sound-focused and accomplished with a minimum of means, and includes performances, videos, recordings and installations. Broadly speaking, his work explores (amongst other things) the interconnected themes of energies and residues, often through reimagining our everyday encounters with technologies and the physical world, and also our experiences of energy generation, use and wastage.

Peter has a background in experimental music and has been fortunate enough to have performed extensively over the last twenty-two years, including appearances at innumerable experimental music and arts festivals, including What is Music, Liquid Architecture, Dark Mofo, Electrofringe, the Biennale of Sydney, Cementa, and ISEA, along with countless other shows.

In 2014, Peter took part in the Instrument Builders Project, a collaboration between Australian and Indonesian artists, resulting in exhibitions in Yogyakarta and the National Gallery of Victoria. His work has also been exhibited at Artspace, UTS Galleries, SNO projects, Firstdraft, Serial Space, Bus, West Space (Vic), CACSA (Adelaide), and the Black Mountain College Museum + Art Center, Asheville, NC, and is currently part of the touring exhibition Material Sound.
