My Story

With her distinctively vibrant and bold colours, FLOX transforms blank spaces into vivid portrayals of our natural landscape. Her flora and fauna inspired compositions are a celebration of Aotearoa’s environmental Taonga.

FLOX has always maintained a philosophy of “making art for the people” and making her art accessible which saw FLOX take her own artistic lane by avoiding the traditional artist/gallery relationship.  Today, FLOX is one of New Zealand’s most recognised contemporary artists.

Her deep connection with land and culture is reflected wherever she picks up her artist tools, whether in the US, Europe, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, or back home in New Zealand.

Sharing is quintessentially FLOX. As she travels, she shares her unique skills through workshops for schools and wider communities. Her goal is to empower and improve the wellbeing of others through creativity. 

Although renowned for her iconic murals, her practice extends to an ever expanding range of in-house products while her big brand collaborations with like-minded organisations (BLUNT, Air New Zealand, Bosch, Playstation, TVNZ), demonstrate her ability to adapt within an ever changing world of business, while still maintaining a pure yet highly versatile artistic pathway.

Rooted in a philosophy that cherishes the handmade, FLOX's artistry is distinguished by her meticulously hand-cut stencils—each a testament to the craft itself. These stencils, often celebrated as artworks in their own right, reflect a deep commitment to authenticity.

While FLOX holds the tradition of the hand-cut in high esteem, she also embraces technology as an integral part of her process. The synergy between craft and technology allows her to push creative boundaries, ensuring each piece is both a unique creation and a harmonious blend of the old and the new.

FLOX’s art is deeply rooted in her identity as a fine artist of Aotearoa, drawing inspiration from her connection to the natural world and the communities that shape her. Each piece she creates is more than an aesthetic expression; it is a tribute to the elements that ground her.

Every mural she paints is site-specific, thoughtfully crafted as a gift to the community it inhabits. These murals become enduring symbols, embraced by the wider community for years to come, fostering a lasting connection between art, place, and people.
