CONTEMPORARY ART STOCKROOM Jon Eiseman

Jon Eiseman’s sculptures extends beyond the physical, encompassing notions of time, spirituality and emotion. Cast in bronze His figurative sculptures have a whimsical and poetic quality in which the common man - often represented as a suited figure or solitary head - is fused with iconic symbols of the vessel, fish, bird, tower, tree, flag and ladder to suggest contemplation, humour and internal struggle. Drawn from the shadow world of dream and the inner landscape of the unconscious, his work creates an intriguing open-ended sense of narrative.

Jon Eiseman has been a practicing artist since 1985, participating in many solo and group exhibitions throughout Australia. Receiving a Bachelor of Arts Honours [Fine Arts] from Monash University in 1998, he completed a Master of Fine Arts at Monash University in 2000.

In 2014 Eiseman exhibited in the Lorne Sculpture Biennale and in 2013 he was a finalist in the McClelland Small Sculpture Fair. In 2010 he was part of the McClelland Sculpture Survey Exhibition and was also a finalist in the Williamstown Festival Contemporary Art Prize, The Deakin University Small Sculpture Award and The Alice Art Prize.

Eiseman has completed several public, corporate and private commissions throughout Australia. His sculptural work features in the permanent collections of The Constable & Hershon Vineyard & Sculpture Garden, Hunter Valley, NSW, La Trobe University Collection, Parliament House, Hobart, Tasmania, Geelong Regional Gallery, Burnie Regional Gallery, and Point Leo Sculpture Park in Victoria. His sculptures are part of private collections in New Zealand, USA, Asia and Europe. Jon Eiseman is currently working full time as a sculptor.
