Miles Allen is an artist whose work doesn’t fit into a neat description. He describes himself as a multi-disciplinary artist whose recent work has included sculpture and installation art. He conducts an ongoing exploration into recycling a variety of materials in a variety of ways – fruit and vegetable boxes from Europe, old rulers, signs, tins, and other reclaimed objects destined for landfill. He has been greatly influenced by traveling and working throughout central Australia over the last few years. His art is about seeing beauty in ordinary things, crossing cultures, promoting conversations, joy, and humour.
Miles Allen has held 19 solo exhibitions since 2002 and has shown work in over a 100 group shows and competitions. In the last few years, he has had work in the Sunshine Coast Art Prize, SWELL Sculpture Festival and Sculpture on the Edge. He has work in the collections of Sunshine Coast Art Collection, Toowoomba Regional Art Gallery, Mater Private Hospital and Gold Coast University Hospital amongst others. Miles Allen is represented by FireWorks Gallery, Brisbane.
