Kate Hannah is a self-taught artist, who has been actively practicing for over 20 years.

Free from feeling bound by a signature style she enjoys the exploration of collating different media to produce one-off pieces from intricate whimsical ink sketches to large abstracts and eclectic collages.

As well as interest in sculpture, nature, poetry, and repurposing, one of her main objectives is to use art to share stories and ideas, encouraging others to reconnect and heal.

As a certified Art Therapist, and passion for holistic living, Kate regularly hosts private events and workshops, as well as working with one-on-one clients.

She believes that majick can be found in the art of creating, and that often the catalyst for change is not reliant on the outcome, but instead the awareness of the process.

 

You can find Kate and her fellow creative Em ‘curating connection through creativity’ at their Hilton studio Wild Gypsy.

Sandii is a self taught mosaic artist who has been practicing for 25 years. She is a lover of community and bringing people together to enjoy creative expression as in fact the founder of FAIR.

In 2017 Sandii & friend Flavio Rosa Da Borba found that there were very few art classes offered locally at prices that were inclusive to low income earners, including those making ends meet on the DSP & so founded FAIR to fill that need.

Sandii proudly wears her identity as a disabled person with lived experience of mental health & created FAIR to provide a safe, accessible, fun & inclusive space for people to come together & connect over creativity.

"Art is good for everyone & everyone is good at art...Just find the medium you flow with. " For me that's mosaics.
