Angus White (b.1998, Melbourne, Australia) is a Paris based painter whose work explores the fleeting nature of human experience through the language of abstraction. Rooted in an architectural understanding of space and composition, his paintings blur the lines between form and figure, structure and spontaneity—translating the ephemeral rhythms of daily life into a visual lexicon of movement, tension, and stillness.

With a background in architecture and public art, Angus has developed a sensitivity to the way spaces shape perception. This awareness permeates his painting practice, where color and gesture construct environments that are both deeply personal and universally resonant. His recent work moves away from representation, instead distilling human presence into marks, traces, and textures—echoes of encounters, places, and sensations.

His evolution as a painter has been met with critical recognition. In 2023, he was awarded the prestigious Brett Whiteley Travelling Art Scholarship, as well as the ARM Prize for Architectural Excellence in 2019. Most recently Angus was awarded by the Art Gallery of New South Whales, a residency at La Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris, creating a large body of work.

He has exhibited widely, with recent solo exhibitions in Melbourne’s CBD and Sydney, each met with a strong reception. His work has also been recognized in national art prizes and continues to gain momentum.
