Eric Bridgeman (1986–) is a Brisbane-based contemporary artist with a particular interest in photographic portraiture and multi-media art. Since completing a Bachelor of Photography at Queensland College of Art in 2010, he has regularly exhibited new bodies of work and participated in group exhibitions around Australia. His work often explores the significance of race in contemporary Australian culture, drawing on his own colonial-indigenous heritage; his father is of English decent and his mother is from the Papua New Guinea Highlands. Bridgeman spends extended periods of time living and working in the Eastern and Western Highlands of PNG, and identifies as a member of the Yuri Alaiku clan of the Chimbu Province.
