Marcus
Bunyan
is an artist who has lectured in fine art photography. His artistic
and research practice investigates the boundaries between identity,
space and environment. His doctoral thesis at RMIT University investigated
the link between self-esteem and body image and traced the development
of the male body image within photographic practice and gym culture.
The thesis has been adapted into a website that
includes research on photographs held at The Kinsey Institute and
The Minor White Archive. After completing his doctorate he was made
Research Fellow in The Department of Information Systems at The
University of Melbourne, Melbourne, Australia, investigating how
strong tie relations are using ICTs (information and communications
technologies) to support mediated intimacy. Early artistic work investigated personal narratives: the shifting interfaces of identity, sexuality, space, time and environment. Later artistic work explored personal narratives as more universal themes: the fracturing of identity, the binaries of light and dark, absence/presence, pattern/randomness in spatio-temporal environments. Current artistic work proposes a further understanding of the paradoxes of contemporary life: the fracturing of the image plane, the dissolution of idenity, the hidden threat, the faint cloudiness in the cornea of things seen, unclearly.
