Nell, Don't you see? Tea Towel x Nell

About the Artist
Nell’s multifaceted practice explores the thresholds and complexities of the contemporary human experience. Growing up in regional Australia, DIY projects and music on the radio were Nell’s lifeline; her connection to the world and the formation of her selfhood. From a distinctly Antipodean perspective, she draws upon art history, popular culture, rock’n’roll, religious texts, Buddhist spiritual teachings, chance and coincidence, to create works that are at once playful, insightful and poetic.
Her work explores oppositional thresholds and the fertile space that exist beyond the binary: from intimate to immersive, found to fabricated, high to low culture, two-dimensions to three-dimensions, individual to collaborative, ancient to contemporary, sacred to profane. Using recognisable motifs, including smiley faces, ghosts, eggs, teardrops, lightning bolts, crosses, and text, her work communicates universal themes of birth, death and everything in between.
