Creative Feature // BYRON COATHUP
From site-specific installations to collaborative curatorial projects, Byron Coathup has built a practice that blurs the lines between art-making and community-building. Based in Murwillumbah on Bundjalung Country, Byron is both a visual artist and project curator whose work has taken shape across galleries, festivals, and rediscovered public spaces, from Testing Grounds in Melbourne to Gallery HOTA on the Gold Coast, as well as major commissions for Bleach* Festival and the Gold Coast Commonwealth Games. Alongside his own practice, Byron plays an active role in the region’s creative ecology by working with the local orgs and supporting artists to realise large-scale projects.
Learn more about Byron’s journey, his approach to collaboration, curating outside the gallery walls, and the ideas that drive his work.

3 kids, a reno and a bucket of rain. Sounded like a good idea at the time. 😐 Looking forward to moving back home soon. We dreamt this up long ago and it’s becoming real!
