Mishfit

Infused with a fierce femininity, Mishfit’s work occupies the hinterland between street art & fine art painting. Leaving her mark on concrete and canvas for nearly 20 years, she has painted internationally from the streets from Melbourne to the walls of Upfest and many places in between.

Mishfit works out of her studio in Brighton, and draws on a broad spectrum of inspiration, from old master paintings and Japanese Ukiyo-e, to abstract realism and retro-futurism. Exploring themes of female empowerment, transformation, defiance, and strength in the face of adversity.

She has become well known for the use of clouds in her work and her dreamlike luminous cloudscapes and surreal botanicals, are a metaphor for human emotion. Transporting the viewer to worlds of wonder and self-discovery. Using a vivid colour palette and expressive mark-making in spray paint and oil paint, her studio work is infused with energy and contrast, capturing the raw process of creativity for everyone to see.
