Brent Leideritz is an Adelaide based artist working in the expanded space of photography.

In Anarchy in the AI Leideritz interrogates identity, nostalgia, and memory, producing works that raise questions about how identity is formed, and how identity is oppressed or liberated through cultural structures, kin and communities. 

Challenging constructed societal norms, and dated binaries of the past, their practice considers the politics of identity and aims to provide space to those that may be seen as ‘other’ to be seen and heard. 

Self-identifying as a neurovariant, queer, goth, freak, Brent gives space for playful opposition, collaboration, gender queering and representation. Made manifest in their works – centred in creatively capturing the moment of connection and collaboration between photographer and individual subject – this in turn creates space for communal deconstruction and reconstruction of the symbolism, myth and narratives that exist within normative and conservative society.
