He is known for producing semi-abstract, mixed media art, and his work is often informed by his experiences traveling. CareerEastaugh studied at the Victorian College of the Arts from 1979 to 1981. After completing his Bachelors of Fine Art, he began to travel, first to New Zealand and Norway,[1] and since then has not settled anywhere for more than a few months at a time.[2] Since the early 1980s, he has participated in over 100 solo exhibitions and 100 group exhibitions in Australia and internationally. He is represented in many of Australia’s state and national art collections including the National Gallery of Australia, the National Gallery of Victoria and Parliament House Canberra. In 2012 Eastaugh self-published Unstill Life, a book with a limited-edition of 500 copies, documenting his 30 years of traveling which he wrote over the winter of 2009 at Mawson station in Antarctica. Artistic Style and InfluencesEach of Eastaugh's semi-abstract, mixed-media artworks tells a story based on his travels[3], such as passing out after his drink was spiked in Peru (Drugs, 1990).[4] Antarctichinoiserie-scape (2004), for example, was inspired by the rafting sea ice found in Antarctica while reminiscent of depictions of distance in Chinese landscape paintings.[5] Eastaugh calls his art of travel an ‘Unstill Life’.[6] He has made nine trips to Antarctica: three trips as the official Australian Antarctic Arts fellow (2000, 2002–3, 2009), and six times as an artist-in-residence on tourist ships. He travelled twice to the North Pole as part of a Polar art residency on Russian icebreakers.[7] Ulan Bator (Mongolia), Nuuk (Greenland), Nufa Alofa (Tonga), Ushuaia (Argentina) are among the 80 plus countries Eastaugh has visited.[8] His 2006 Summer studio at Australia’s Davis Station in Antarctica was the subject of the ABC TV documentary AntarcticArt.[9] On Eastaugh's third official trip to Antarctica he over-wintered at Mawson station.[10] The work Eastaugh produces in each country regularly uses materials that resonate with, or are particular to, the local culture.[11] These materials have a strong textural quality: encaustic wax, oilsticks, medical bandages, rugs, fabric, embroidery, damaged paper and pearl shells.[12] Rooted (Mongolia), 2004, for example, abstracts various Mongolian objects and views in 30 panels made from acrylic paint and embroidered medical bandages, wool and cotton thread.[13] Personal lifeAn adopted child born in Melbourne, Australia[14] Eastaugh made contact with his biological parents when he was 28.[15] His biological father is a former Dutch sailor, based in Broome, Australia.[16] In 2007 Eastaugh married Argentinian photographer and vigneron Carolina Furque in Hong Kong.[17] Collections (selected)National Gallery of Australia, CanberraThe National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne The Art Gallery of Western Australia, Perth Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery, Hobart Parliament House, Canberra Australian Antarctic Division Collection Kerry Stokes Collection, Perth Awards, grants, fellowships (selected)Asialink Residency, Hong Kong 2001 and Beijing 2012[https://www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/about-us/opportunities-for-artists/studios-in-paris-scholarship/ Art Gallery of NSW, Moya Dyring Studio, Cite Internationale, Paris, 2001] Faber Castell National Drawing Award (Professional), 1991 References1. ^Hor-Chung Lau, J. “Stitches and stays”, South China Morning Post, 8 August 2004 2. ^Thomson, Jonathan. “The Art of Travel”, Asian Art News, Vol. 14 No.6, November/December 2004 3. ^Crawford, Ashley. “Wandering star”, The Australian, 26 June 2010 4. ^Wardell, M “East(augh), West, North and South”, Stephen Eastaugh: Antarctica, international touring exhibition catalogue, 2000-1 5. ^Thomson, Jonathan. “The Art of Travel”, Asian Art News, Vol. 14 No.6, November/December 2004 6. ^Schmidt, Lucinda. “Everysomewherever”, Mercedes magazine, Autumn 2008 7. ^Hor-Chung Lau, J. “Stitches and stays”, South China Morning Post, 8 August 2004 8. ^Thomson, Jonathan. “The Art of Travel”, Asian Art News, Vol. 14 No.6, November/December 2004 9. ^Schmidt, Lucinda. “Everysomewherever”, Mercedes magazine, Autumn 2008 10. ^Raw, Kristin. “Ice in your paintbrush”, Australian Antarctic Magazine, Issue 29, December 2015 11. ^Thomson, Jonathan. “The Art of Travel”, Asian Art News, Vol. 14 No.6, November/December 2004 12. ^Schmidt, Lucinda. “Everysomewherever”, Mercedes magazine, Autumn 2008 13. ^Hor-Chung Lau, J. “Stitches and stays”, South China Morning Post, 8 August 2004 14. ^Schmidt, Lucinda. “Everysomewherever”, Mercedes magazine, Autumn 2008 15. ^Crawford, Ashley. “Wandering star”, The Australian, 26 June 2010 16. ^Crawford, Ashley. “Wandering star”, The Australian, 26 June 2010 17. ^Crawford, Ashley. “Wandering star”, The Australian, 26 June 2010 External links
