Biography
Painter, sculptor and works on paper artist. Born in Orange, NSW, in 1951, Trevor Weekes lives and works in Newcastle, NSW. Weekes has studied the National Art School and Canberra School of Art. Between 1976-78 he studied a Diploma in Art at the Alexander Mackie School of Advanced Education. In 1994 Weekes graduated with a Masters in Fine Arts from the College of Fine Arts, University of New South Wales, and in 1999 he received his Doctorate of Philosophy from the University of Newcastle, NSW. Weekes is inspired by animals’ ability to adapt and evolve to ever changing environments. In 2005 Weekes spent time in France at Zootheque, the Natural History Museum’s archive, which houses over eighty thousand bird specimens. While there he produced over five hundred sketches of birds. His resulting body of sculptures and paintings were based on hybrid and fantastical species of birds – birds which exist in the infinite possibilities of nature’s (and Weekes’) imagination. To date, Weekes has had over twenty-five solo exhibitions since 1979 and he has exhibited in over forty group exhibitions. He has completed many commissions and is represented in numerous collections, including Artbank, Burnie Art Gallery, College of Fine Arts, John Darnell Collection, Hamilton Regional Gallery, Muswellbrook Regional Art Gallery, Macquarie University, Newcaslte Region Art Gallery, New England Regional Art Museum, South Australian College of Advanced Education, State Bank of New South Wales, The Australian National Gallery, The Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences, The Visual Arts Board, Toowoomba Rotary Club, Wagga Wagga Art Gallery, Lake Macquarie Regional Art Gallery, the University of Newcastle, Araluen Arts Centre, as well as private collections in the USA, Britain, Spain and Australia.
