About

Alana Wesley is a Sydney based performance and installation artist. Wesley’s atmospheric pieces both beckon participants to explore and interact , as well as trigger a wide range of physical, visceral and emotional experiences. Wesley often incorporates a strong sense of the abject within her practice , particularly focusing on the presence of abjection within the everyday. Her work tonally embraces a sense of the tragicomic; a factor that often leaves viewers highly unsettled and emotionally unsure of how to react.

Alana finished her Bachelor of Fine Arts at the UNSW Art & Design in 2015 and completed her Bachelor of Visual Arts (Honours) at the Sydney College of the Arts in 2016. She has exhibited in spaces such as MOP, Articulate, Verge Gallery and Airspace in Sydney as well as internationally in London and New York.
