Aoife Billings (she/her) is an Irish-Australian visual artist working on Wurundjeri land (Coburg, Melbourne). Central to her practice is ceramic sculpture and oil painting.
She often depicts monstrous, inhuman figures with four legs in her work. This allows narrative to be carried, without the overidentification with a human form - so that emotion and sensation exploration are at the forefront of the works.
In addition to her studio practice, Aoife is active in the arts community. She is a cofounder and director of Pink Ember Studio, a queer ARI established in 2018. Aoife teaches workshops in ceramics and plays an ongoing role as the events and art education programmer at Pink Ember.
