George Goodnow (AKA Goodie) is a multidisciplinary artist and curator. Their practice incorporates painting, sculpture and the use of salvaged materials to produce site-specific installations.

By fabricating fictional architectures and objects, or adjusting existing architectures, Goodnow considers how spaces reflect, orientate and hold bodies. Recent work explores feelings of disorientation, binaries and queerness within suburban and urban landscapes.  

Goodnow has exhibited and produced public art installations around Australia and overseas, and has collaborated on projects with the Melbourne Fringe Festival, SIGNAL Arts, Juddy Roller and the Abbotsford Convent. They were the curator of Intermission Project at the Collingwood Yards in 2018, and are a current curatorial advisor for Science Gallery Melbourne.
