Miranda Hine’s painting practice explores forms of personal documentation, cataloguing, ordering and ambiguous narrative construction that aligns with her museums research. With a background in sculpture, video and installation, her current practice centres on painting. Drawing inspiration from her curatorial practice, Hine investigates notions of categorisation in her dreamy paintings, exploring common themes through a lens of art history and museum theory, and questioning boundaries of objective truth and personal interpretation.
Along with being a 2022 recipient of the Brett Whiteley Travelling Art Scholarship Kangaroo Valley residency, Hine was a finalist in the 2023 Wynne Prize at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney, and was awarded highly commended in the 2023 STILL: National Still Life Award.
