Queer Australian Art and KINK acknowledge the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the traditional owners and custodians of the lands and waters of this continent. KINK conducts its work on the unceded lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong peoples of the Kulin Nation in Naarm Melbourne, the Turrbal and Jagera peoples in Meanjin Brisbane and the Gadigal lands of the Eora Nation, Sydney. We pay respect to elders past, present, and emerging. Sovereignty was never ceded.

Lincoln Austin

They/Them

Bio

Lincoln Austin’s (b. 1974) objectcentered art practice playfully explores the ambiguous spaces between Ideal, Material and Quantum realities. Formally trained in applied/visual art and theatre production design, their audience focused works seek to encourage active and participatory responses, often employing optical devices to reward viewers who shift their relative location to the work. They believe art’s primary public function is to prompt audiences to ask questions of the artist and themselves and define art as the physical manifestation of thought in time through effort. Austin has exhibited nationally and internationally, concurrently producing 20 large-scale permanent public artworks since 2005. Their artworks are represented in many significant public and private collections.
