Art Gallery of NSW Café commission

In early 2020, I was commissioned by designer Emma Ross to create a custom artwork for the café at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. Inspired by Japanese tiles, I developed a series of hand-painted pots—designed for both indoor and outdoor spaces—alongside a painted tile wall, bringing a sense of calm energy into the environment.

Earthy, subtle, and textural, the work plays with repetition and restraint, using a pared-back palette to create softness and flow. Still in place today, this one-of-a-kind installation was created to quietly animate the café and invite a moment of pause.
