'Muse' pursues an interrogation of the human body as a ‘site’ of intimacy. Starr’s work revisits the Sexual Revolution of the 1970s, 80s and 90s that critiqued gender roles, gender politics and gender stereotyping. This interrogation is timely because the cultural and attitudinal backslide into deeply entrenched conservatism has occurred over the last two decades. This has manifested a ‘toxic gaze’ of poisonous judgment and criticism of people’s appearance and behaviour. The series draws upon the Sexual Revolution, the LGBTQI Rights movement and the ‘pro-sex’ feminists of the early 1980s, their staunch anti-censorship/ freedom of choice ethos and their fearless and unashamed portrayal of the human body to question codes of representation and society mores. The Homosapiens series is sensual, defiant and sexually provocative. We all interact with lovers and friends on various personal and intimate levels. Homosapiens captures their strength, defiance and powerfully provocative male & feminine sexuality. Digital painting printed on Canson Museum Rag 315gsm.

Steve’s work primary focus is on the human experience, the body positive, sexuality and gender identification, relationships and nonhuman connections. Steve engages with traditional print making techniques like screen printing and intaglio printing, painting on canvas and paper, digital manipulation and contemporary printing technologies. In addition to his art practice, Steve is a published author, curator and heritage specialist with over 20 years experience in the arts and cultural sector. The most important thing about Steve’s work is his unflinching interrogation of the human body as a site of identity, gender, sexuality, body positivity and our relationships with the nonhuman environment and our past. Steve’s practice is informed by printmakers such as Nathalie LL and Andy Warhol, gender bending performance artists such as David Bowie and Lou Reed, the colourful and engaging stories of Greyson Perry’s tapestries and the surreal photography of Cindy Sherman. Steve was educated at East Sydney Technical College, The University of Sydney, University of the Arts London and UNSW: Art & Design. He currently lives in Elizabeth Bay NSW.
