Shae Gregg is a multidisciplinary artist based on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, whose work explores themes of identity, memory, and cultural disconnection. Working primarily in painting and drawing, she creates evocative figurative compositions that examine personal and collective histories.

Born and raised in Australia, Shae did not grow up with direct access to Māori culture, a reality shaped by both geography and the colonial history of adoption and assimilation. Through her art, she is navigating what it means to reconnect with an identity that was fractured across generations.

Using archival photographs and traditional drawing techniques in graphite and charcoal, she explores the fragile nature of memory, the complexities of inherited identity, and the act of reclaiming cultural roots. While her earlier works examined themes of alienation and the subconscious, her current practice is a deeply personal investigation into family history and belonging—a visual storytelling process that seeks to bridge the gaps between past, present, and self.
