About

Jonny Scholes is a multidisciplinary artist with work that encompasses installation, sculpture, painting, new media and street art, each linked through an interest in digital geopolitics and the rapid integration of technologies into society. Informed by his knowledge in coding and digital systems, Scholes’ work draws attention to the abstract nature of hidden digital mechanisms that now influence our social systems and shape the physical world.

Scholes has participated in numerous group shows, including artistic collaborations in Melbourne, Adelaide and Bristol (UK). Recent solo exhibitions include Lost Bedrooms at Schoolhouse Gallery and Interpreted at Social, which was featured in Vault Magazine’s Forecast section in 2023. Recent commissions include new work for MONA FOMA, Dark MOFO, Contemporary Arts Tasmania and Arts Tasmania.
