BIO
Shae Gregg is a visual artist whose work explores the complexities of the human experience, delving into themes of identity, introspection, and the obscure corners of the subconscious mind. Her art frequently examines feelings of alienation, isolation, and escapism, drawing deeply on psychological and emotional layers. Inspired by both the natural world and the surreal landscapes of dreams, Shae’s work juxtaposes the familiar with the fantastical, and the serene with the unsettling, creating a universe where reality is bent and emotions are amplified. By weaving in elements of humour, satire, and pop culture, Shae adds a playful edge to her profound narratives, forging a unique connection with those who are eager to explore the deeper stories and emotions beneath the surface.
