Sam Bloor is a visual artist from Perth, Western Australia. He is interested in using the democratic nature of language to connect with audiences and reflect contemporary life. His work often moves between the small and personal scale (tattoos, mirrored objects) and the public and large scale (billboards, installations). He inverts the messaging of these scales to create public moments of intimacy and private reflections on the collective nature of society.
Sam has exhibited in a number of group and solo exhibitions both nationally and internationally, including Totem In Tribute (2016) in Edinburgh, UK, the Fremantle Biennale (2019/23) and the Rotterdam Photo Festival (2019), Netherlands. He was commissioned to produce a major public work as part of the 2022 Perth Festival.
Sam has won multiple awards, including the Fremantle Print Award (2019), the Rockingham Art Award (2024) and the Joondalup Invitation Art Prize (2025). His work has been acquired by private, public and institutional collections, including the Art Gallery of Western Australia.
