Sydney-based artist, curator, and researcher Jeremy Smith works at the confluence of art, activism, and historical memory. His practice examines how queer histories can be mapped, visualised, and reimagined through forms of collective storytelling and spatial intervention.
Smith is recognised for his large-scale counter-maps – works that weave together personal narrative, archival research, and community engagement to chart the emotional, political, and geographic dimensions of queer experience.

JEREMY SMITH | SOLO EXHIBITION
Jeremy Smith
Jeremy W. Smith is a Sydney-based queer artist, curator, and researcher whose practice weaves together drawing, cartography, and queer historiography to illuminate hidden narratives and reimagine how identity is mapped across time, space, body, and mind. He is currently completing a PhD in Fine Arts at UNSW Art & Design, where his research project, Drawing Queer Counter-Cartography, unfolds as a series of large-scale, hand-drawn maps that construct a profoundly personal and politically charged visual archive of queer life in Sydney. Smith is also one of the inaugural curators at Qtopia Sydney, Australia’s first LGBTQIA+ museum, and a founding member and curator at DrawSpace, Sydney’s first gallery dedicated to drawing.
