Louisa Bufarde­ci

Biography

Born Mel­bourne, Aus­tralia 1969

Lives and works in Melbourne


Through dig­i­tal prints, charts, maps, embroi­dery and instal­la­tion, Louisa Bufarde­ci uses visu­al cod­ing sys­tems to rep­re­sent sta­tis­ti­cal infor­ma­tion about the world around us. Her abstract com­po­si­tions are ground­ed in polit­i­cal fact, offer­ing new ways to reflect upon con­tem­po­rary sit­u­a­tions. In her work, Bufarde­ci brings aware­ness to social systems.

Bufardeci’s works are in the col­lec­tions of: Nation­al Gallery of Vic­to­ria, Mel­bourne; Monash Uni­ver­si­ty of Art, Mel­bourne; Muse­um of Con­tem­po­rary Art Aus­tralia, Syd­ney; The Uni­ver­si­ty of Mel­bourne; Art­bank, Aus­tralia; Vir­ginia Muse­um of Fine Arts, Rich­mond, Vir­ginia; and RMIT Uni­ver­si­ty, Melbourne.
