BIOGRAPHY
Born in Melbourne, Australia in 1982, Kareem Rizk is a collage and mixed media artist, illustrator and designer who graduated from Monash University in 2004 with a Bachelor in Visual Communication. During the course, Rizk developed an appreciation for collage and explored a diverse array of mixed media techniques and mediums.
After graduating, Rizk’s creative interests began to shift towards fine art and illustration, particularly collage and mixed media art. While working as a Graphic Designer at Melbourne’s No.1 selling newspaper, The Herald Sun, his interest in collage continued to develop and by 2006 it became a focus of his endeavours.
Since his shift of focus to fine art and illustration in 2006 and his pursuit of developing his style, Rizk has earned international recognition and has been cited as one of the premier mixed media artists working today. Rizk currently lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Working mediums include collage, acrylic, oil pastel, pencil, solvent transfers and acrylic transfers. The work is highly textured and often multi-layered with a nostalgic and weathered quality. Rizk’s works can often be vibrant with colour, while others display a very refined or minimal palette.
Working methods also extend to digital collage with a very gritty and realistic display of texture and layering. The digital work began as an experiment in blurring the line between handmade collage and digital collage.
Other work includes freelance illustration, graphic design and fine art commissions for various clients including art buyers and collectors, editorial publications, galleries, university and tertiary institutes, the boutique fashion industry and the music and entertainment industry.
Exhibitions include solo shows and group shows in Melbourne, Sydney, Byron Bay, Brisbane, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Washington DC, Miami, London, Berlin, Copenhagen (Danmarks NationalBank), West Cork (Ireland), Stockholm, Krems (Austria), Zurich, Barcelona, Madrid and Milan.
Rizk's work has been published in numerous high profile art magazines and books and his work is held in private collections worldwide.
