Phillip Muzzall

Sydney, Australia


Phillip Muzzall is a multidisciplinary artist working with video, post-photography, and digital mixed media. His practice examines how digital systems attempt to preserve place, memory, and identity, and where these systems begin to fracture. Through glitch aesthetics, compression artefacts, and generative distortion, he treats digital failure not as error but as evidence of erosion, environmental, cultural, and emotional.

Drawing from a background in media and digital arts, Phillip studied at the University of Wollongong and later refined his visual language at UNSW. He is a 2024 graduate of AWARD School. Based in Sydney, he works within VANDAL's creative team across conceptual development, design, and technical production, moving fluidly between gallery spaces and commercial environments.

I acknowledge the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation,
on whose land I work on. I also acknowledge the Wodi Wodi
people of the Dharawal Nation, the Traditional Custodians of
the land in the Shoalhaven. I pay my respects to Elders past
and present, and acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded.
