Thomas O’Hara began studying Gold and Silversmithing in 2010 at RMIT University, Melbourne and completed his Honours there in 2014. After returning to his home town of Canberra, Thomas commenced a PhD at the Australian National University School of Art and Design. With a trade background as an electrician, Thomas has learnt a controlled systematic way of constructing work that he has combined with a strong interest in organic, free formed patterns and objects found in nature. This has resulted in a practice that explores our complex connection to nature through wooden objects that blur what is human constructed and what is naturally formed. These works provoke curiosity and engage us with material that reminds us of our interconnected relationship to nature.
Thomas is a Higher Degree by Research Candidate, completing his Doctor of Philosophy.
