Fiona Abicare

Fiona’s work operates across a range of fields including sculpture, fashion, interior design and cultural history. Her creative process has a historical relationship to the various iterations of the ‘total artwork’ (Gesamtkunstwerk) found in modernist design. Developed through extensive material research and conceptual framing, her work addresses the intersection between histories of social space and their contemporary contexts.

Fiona completed a Bachelor of Fine Art in Sculpture at the Victorian College of the Arts (1994) and Honours in Sculpture at RMIT University (1999). In 2006 she was awarded a Masters of Arts in Interior Design from RMIT University, and she undertook an Australia Council London Studio residency in 2012. She has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions including ‘A Thousand Different Angles’ at McClelland, Langwarrin, (2022). In 2023, she presented a major new commission at the National Gallery of Victoria as part of Melbourne Now.
