Beau Gomez is a lens-based artist whose practice is informed by ideas, challenges and conversations around cross-cultural narratives as they relate to positions of community and otherness. He is interested in activating storytelling as a vehicle for illustrating memory, an operative point of tension and affect, and an exercise in bearing witness. His work is grounded in image-making as a conduit between individual and collective histories, giving permission to shared means of learning, nurturing and renewal.
