George Khut is a Chinese-Australian artist who makes ceramic art objects for everyday use, and interactive electronic artworks that re-imagine connections between body and mind.

At the heart of his practice is a commitment to art as a unique way of feeling and relating through our senses, beyond language and symbolic representations – and a belief in the continuity of these deeply embodied and sensual ways of knowing, feeling and relating, across human societies through the ages.

His ceramic vessels combine his love of subdued materiality with sensual forms informed by the diverse ceramic traditions of East Asia. They are objects made to be experienced and handled in the context of food sharing, as well as functioning as objects for display and contemplation.

The interactive artworks he has been making since 2004, use bio-feedback technologies to enable people to sense and initiate qualitative shifts in their own nervous system reflexes - through electronic sounds and images modulated by live recordings of their own heart beats, brainwaves, breath and body-movements. 

He has been a leading proponent for the use of interactive art in health care settings, having presented his artworks in hospital settings - for general audiences, as well as in clinical applications, with the BrightHearts App, researching the efficacy of his artworks for helping children to manage pain and anxiety during medical procedures.
