Jason Rice is an Australian painter. His work and style is a cultural homogenisation that he himself at times finds difficult to articulate. He attempts to represent a visual type of poetry and rhythm amalgamating word symbol and image.

Although he will protest at the thought of being categorised or “boxed” as he calls it. His form is mostly a kind of bombastic neo-expression with a sometimes poppy edge and plenty to project about modern life. His recent work examines the modus operandi humans project by creating identities through their perceptions of world amongst the reality of what actually is.

Mixing techniques from mural and street art to cubism and colourising Jason attempts to distance himself from any particular genre. In a time when critics are demanding consistency he seems unwilling to adhere to clear artistic forms or boundaries. Preferring instead to illuminate us by demanding his work remain pure.
