Travis McEwen works predominantly within the medium of painting. His focus has been to investigate the emotional, psychological, and social experiences of being othered in relation to western conceptions and limitations of gender and sexuality, while critically appropriating from the tradition of portraiture, using notional and composite figures. Within the paintings as well as in collage, his exploration extends to the use of appropriation itself, Michel Foucault’s notion of the Heterotopia and the expressive and symbolic associations of colour.
