Ed Bats practice is deeply rooted in the notion of evolution through material experimentation. While the many facets of their work can be undeniably linked together, there are branches that deviate and allude to the many influences and references they consume. A visual language primarily focused on abstraction and minimalism, their paintings can include found objects and constructed elements to create assemblages and installations that oscillate between painting, assemblage and sculpture.
Ed Bats lives and works in Wellington, New Zealand.
