Jody Graham
Resume
Jody Graham is a multidisciplinary artist who works across drawing, mixed media, sculpture, performance, and installation. She often uses unconventional tools and approaches when drawing, such as rocks, bones, wire bound to the back of her hand or a bent umbrella. This speaks to her long-nurtured ‘re-use and re-cycle’ ethos widely seen across her practice.
Graham has been a finalist in major sculpture, painting and drawing awards. In 2022, she won the Adelaide Perry Prize for Drawing. In 2020, Graham was a finalist in the Gosford Art Prize, Jacaranda Acquisitive Drawing Award, Swan Hill Print & Drawing Award and the Adelaide Perry Prize for Drawing. She was also the winner of the GreenWay Art Prize in 2017 and the GreenWay Local Artist Prize in 2020.
Jody graduated with a Master of Art from UNSW Art & Design Paddington in 2018 and has an Advanced Diploma in Visual Art, WSI, from Nepean Campus (2012). She was educated at the City Art Institute in Paddington.
