I am an artist based in Melbourne who enjoys creating in multiple art forms, including printmaking, painting, drawing, and digital art. I use these mediums to express myself on a personal level. Before discovering spirituality, I worked on an art practice that focused on my self-psychology and experiences throughout my life. This journey led me to create works of art reflecting my mental health and the struggles of identity, developing a style characterised by complementary colours, symbolism, and geometry; building my own abstract world separate from the material world. The practice continued until it negatively affected me, making me question myself more as both a creator and an individual. Exploring spirituality has influenced me to find new ways to improve and express my well-being and has motivated me to change my art practice by expressing myself more positively, shifting my focus from the self to a higher power, and utilising my established art style for a greater purpose.
ORDER & CHAOS delves into transformation, spiritual healing, and the belief in a higher self through my unique perspective on spirituality and the search for purpose. Inspired by alchemy, spiritual philosophy, and fantastical themes, this project emphasizes my personal philosophy as a means of understanding my identity and deepening my connection with faith and the divine.
