Anna Nazzari has a Doctorate of Philosophy (Art) and has worked at Curtin University for seven years in the field of online art education. In this environment she has been instrumental in advocating new modes of teaching and learning and in designing innovative course materials, such as a curatorial art stream and pathways in both painting and sculpture. Her research focuses on providing and implementing new avenues for art online education. Nazzari also has an on-going art practice which thematically engages with notions of the absurd. In Albert Camus’ ‘The Myth of Sisyphus’, the absurd is defined as an altercation between humanity’s need for meaning and the visible meaninglessness of the world. Nazzari explores this premise by creating automated sculptural works that subvert how morality is accepted as a provider of truth in contemporary culture. Her artwork has been exhibited both locally and nationally.
