Biography
“Walker’s recipe for life is ''back lanes and dirt under my feet’' and he has lived without compromise. Raised in Ballarat, his main influence was his grandmother, a painter and free spirit who encouraged him to draw. At 15 he left home, doing odd jobs in Melbourne and putting himself through school.” Louise Bellamy SMH 2013 His assemblages are three-dimensional collages and travelogues … with his creativity influenced by … artists like Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, Edvard Munch and Hieronymus Bosch. “I was very interested in the Dadaists and surrealists, they liberated the imagination and that’s what I was all about” ... I’m interested in how one can express the human condition in ways that don’t rely on beauty. I deal with the unconscious a good deal as did the Dadaists and surrealists” ... “In a way, it’s a permanence to dreams if you do it well. I’ve attempted to create my own original language and I think I have succeeded.” Tim Bottams Ballarat Times 2022 Writers: 7write6 Date written: 2022 Last updated: 2022
