Luke Rudman's practice sits at the juncture of painting and performance

Blue, performance-still, Luke Rudman, 2024

Luke Rudman^[1] is a visual-and-performance artist based in Gqeberha, South Africa. He completed his BVA Fine Arts postgraduate degrees at NMU in 2023. Rudman has a background of working within spaces of environmentalism, drag and performance art – often working within the intersections of these spaces. Rudman’s cross-disciplinary history influences his practice of creating art that sits within the intersection of painting, photography, performance, and installation. This multi-modal, ‘non-binary’ approach to artmaking is reflective of the themes within his art - such as the complex and nuanced relationship between conceptions of nature and of queer identity^[2].

Highlights include being selected as a Design Indaba Emerging Creative^[3], been a regular collaborator with environmental organizations such as Greenpeace Afrique^[4] and The Sustainable Seas Trust. Rudman has been the recipient of the Abe Bailey Travel Bursary^[5] and Golden Key Outstanding Member Award^[6] and has presented work on platforms such as Turbine Art Fair, Arcade Live Art Festival and Google Arts & Culture^[7].
