Artist Talk with Daniel Freaker – VAO25 Finalist in Painting, Mixed Media & Printmaking Category

Friday, 10th October from 14:00

Painter Daniel Freaker shares insights into his career and practice, exploring how his work balances structure and chaos through expressive layers of paint. With roots in graphics and electronic media, Daniel has developed a distinctive visual language that reflects on memory, imperfection, and the search for meaning. His paintings, often striking in colour yet emotionally charged, invite audiences to engage with the tension between beauty and the human condition.
