About the Artwork: 

This body of work explores the shifts that happen when we start to see life through someone else’s eyes. It’s often the difficult moments that push us into new places, new landscapes, and new relationships. We leave behind what’s familiar and, in doing so, we’re changed. These experiences shape the way we see the world and the people around us. For me, this work is about those moments of transformation—when a change in perspective becomes a way of moving forward, and when we begin not just to see differently, but to truly live.

About the Artist:

Krystal is a contemporary artist based in Brisbane, specialising in abstract painting. Her practice is grounded in drawing, mixed media, and textiles, with a continued focus on material exploration and expressive form. An intuitive use of gesture, colour, and mark-making, Krystal is influenced by artists such as Tracey Emin, Egon Schiele, John Olsen, and Brett Whiteley. Through large-scale abstract compositions, her work explores themes of
memory, place, and belonging, she investigates the tension between movement and stillness, and the shifting relationship between home, identity, and lived experience.
