Gian Manik is a contemporary artist based in Naarm/Melbourne who has been making art since 2006. Manik conceptualises, creates and installs his artworks in ways that challenge the conventions that traditionally define painting as an art form. For these reasons his practice can be understood as expanded painting. Manik's art expands our ideas of what painting can be. Even though his works vary widely in subject matter, scale, intention and technique, he sees them as individual elements within an open-ended exploration into self portraiture. Each work reflects an aspect of Manik's identity, personality or intellect.
