  • Artist (Mixed Media Artist)
Kelly Doley is an artist based in Sydney. As well as having a solo practice creating video works, paintings and performance pieces, she is also a member of the all female performance collective Brown Council.

Kelly Doley’s cross-disciplinary work is based upon engaging with themes current in society. She often uses performance, collaboration and interaction as tools to investigate the certain issue such as gender or self with direct communication. Most of the works are inherently feminist that then also question social and political structures within our culture. The information she uncovers and gains is then used for further online, exhibition and print projects.

She holds a Master of Fine Arts from Sydney College of the Arts, University of Sydney (2011) as well as a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Hons) from COFA, UNSW (2006)

Since 2008 she has been working on participatory, curatorial and publishing projects.

Doley has exhibited and presented solo and collaboratively in a range of contexts and spaces nationally and internationally
