Upcoming artist-in-residence: Ren Gregorčič

Ren Gregorčič

Ren Gregorčič is an Australian conceptual artist of Slovenian heritage, living on Ngunnawal Ngambri Country, in Canberra ACT. His practice is critically engaged with the politics of materiality, human-centric narratives of place, interdependence, and enviro-social systems. Examining the entangled relationships between materials, perception, and environmental systems (particularly in relation to concrete), Ren works with site-based approaches, experimental fieldwork, and site-responsive sculptural practices. His practice critiques anthropocentric materialist frameworks, advocating for interdependence and reciprocity while navigating the complexities of ecological and social justice.

"During my residency at Gunyah, I plan to create a new video work that responds to the surrounding environment. I will explore the area’s natural and cultural landscape, drawing on its ecology and history as part of my creative process. The residency offers a quiet and reflective space to deepen my exploration of environmental and social systems."
