Ryley Clarke

Ryley Clarke (b.1999) is a visual storyteller based in Australia. His work centres around light, memory, and the human condition, which sheds light on the chaos and contradictions, moments of instability and upheaval, that shape society and the individual. In his practice, he delves into the relationship between photography and cinema to examine the emotionality and relational forms of life, society, and the human experience. His work grapples with stories of coming of age, dystopian futures, the environment, and the search for self-identity and familial spaces. Ryley’s latest projects focus on the experience of growing up in a dystopian society and the journey of restoring and leaving behind a childhood home.
