Geoffrey Ricardo
Our past resides on a foundation of wooden bones
A floating house of absurd dimensions
History repeats like a raging tide
We are haunted

Geoffrey Ricardo is a Melbourne-based artist whose work is represented in the public collections of the National Gallery of Victoria, National Gallery of Australia, the Queensland Art Gallery and the Art Gallery of New South Wales.
Stylistically, Geoffrey draws on figurative expressionism and surrealism to create his own ‘dream realism’. Through this imagery, he presents poignant observations of the human condition – some of which allow us to laugh at our own behaviour. Beneath his images of the comic and the absurd lies a deeper philosophical questioning of human nature.
