About the work

AYA is a bold, abstract woman seated alongside a long, elegant crane-like bird. Bright colour and intricate detail move through the figures, contrasted against solid blocks of deep navy that give the piece a sense of calm and structure. The balance between the highly detailed forms and pared-back navy creates a feeling that is both energetic and grounded — colourful, feminine and a little mysterious. AYA is a piece that rewards a closer look, with details and layers revealing themselves throughout.

Part of SOMEBODY’S RAINBOW — a collection about the people who bring colour, light and energy into our world, and a reminder that, without a doubt, you are somebody’s rainbow too.

About the artist

I create art for people who want their spaces to feel intentional, expressive, and quietly bold — and just as much for myself, as a form of curiosity, play, and meditation. My ever-evolving work explores colour, texture, and the human form, which continues to surface as a quiet constant. Born in Auckland, New Zealand in 1991 and raised by South African parents, I am an artist driven by curiosity and intuitive exploration. With a background in sculpture and fashion design, my work is grounded in form, materiality, and narrative through making. After returning to art during the COVID period, my practice expanded into commissioned works, paintings and limited edition prints now held by collectors worldwide. I am currently working on my second cohesive body of work.
