Elise Bonato, multidisciplinary visual artist from Adelaide, SA, is a practitioner of the visual-aural arcane. Her predominantly experimental practice investigates contemporary notions and versions of the sublime and mysticism, through a synthesis of moving image, performance, installation, drawing and painting. Since graduating with First Class Honours in Visual Arts at the University of South Australia in 2012, she has exhibited locally in Australia (Sawtooth ARI, FELTspace, The Mill) as well as in the USA (Interstitial Theatre, NARS Foundation, Henry Art Gallery). Elise most recently lived and worked in Brooklyn, NYC, to participate in the NARS Foundation International Residency program.
