Ingmar Apinis

Ingmar Apinis (he/him) is a multi-disciplinary artist based in Naarm/Melbourne, Australia whose practice explores post-digital aesthetics and internet culture through a queer lens.

Working in a range of mediums that spans across paint, digital printing, plaster and water transfer printing (an industrial production process also known as hydro-dipping), his work poses questions about online subcultures, future histories, queerness, and the role of physical objects in an increasingly virtual world.

Ingmar has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions at a number of galleries including C3 Contemporary Art Space, Rubicon, Kings Artist Run, Counihan Gallery, Salamanca Arts Centre and Artereal Gallery. He completed a Bachelor of Fine Art (2000), and a Masters of Contemporary Art (2020) at the VCA, and co-founded Brunswick Temporary studios and gallery in 2021.

Ingmar has been a finalist in the Nillumbik, and Wyndham prizes, and the Woollahra Small Sculpture Prize. Ingmar was awarded the Ursula Hoff Printmaking Award in 2020.
