Jan Cleveringa is a Sydney based artist exploring impacts of global cultural change, identity, technology and sustainability. He works experimentally across painting, sculpture and video.

Jan has exhibited with Galeria Zero in Barcelona, Basel, Berlin and Paris; and Sheffer Gallery, Darlington.
During my residency at Gunyah I plan to take my time exploring and discovering the environment, and experimenting with painting Plein Air and kinetic drawing. I'm also looking forward to collecting found objects and discarded materials to use in sculptures.
