Aaron Weldon has been working independently for over a decade. Almost a formalist, at his most disciplined Weldon simplifies language--at his least disciplined, his work is a melodic blend of solipsism, tristesse, insight and absurdity.

Aaron Weldon's writings on art have been published by Flash Art International, Biennale de l'Image en Mouvement Genève; commissioned for exhibitions at Pace Gallery, London, Peres Projects, Berlin, and PlugIn ICA, Winnipeg; his paintings have been exhibited at the National Gallery of Canada,Ottawa; Georgia Scherman Projects, Toronto; The Confederation Centre Art Gallery, Charlottetown. His work in film and video has been supported by The National Filmboard of Canada; le Consulat général de France, Moncton; the Canada Council for the Arts.
Weldon studied at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Originally from Nova Scotia, he lives in Berlin, Germany.


[...] art doesn't have a strong relationship to nature, truth, destiny, chance or God,
it's an effort to figure out if we have any room.
