Street Art

I live and work within the Country of the Darug and Gundungurra peoples, in the Blue Mountains and my work examines the relationship between humans and the plant world. After studying and working in Interior Architecture in Sydney, Brussels and Rotterdam, I fell in love with public art and the way it can transform the built environment. After winning two mural competitions in 2017, I launched my art practice and have been painting immersive botanical pieces ever since. I’ve developed a sensitivity to the way our environments affect our bodies and our minds so by painting oversized, abstract flora in soft and vibrant hues, I want to transport people to a place somewhere between a playground and a meditative space. Through my work, I hope to break down language and cultural barriers to create inclusive spaces for friends and strangers to enjoy together. As well as running a personal art practice, I’m interested in creating pieces for and with the community to allow them to access art and to experience its’ benefits in public spaces.
