Stacey Mrmacovski is a contemporary artist based in Melbourne.
She was born into an artistic family, with her grandmother training her in oils by the age of 6. She graduated VCE Dux of Visual Arts and Communications, and proceeded to study Art Direction with a Bachelor of Communications from RMIT.
After working in the media and art education industry, she decided to go back to her number one passion - painting - in 2014, and has never looked back. Her original artworks hang in collections across Australia, Asia, Europe, Canada, New Zealand and the USA.
In her latest body of work, Stacey Mrmacovski brings together a series of paintings which are an exploration in finding a sense of place amongst her experience of the landscape. Inspired by the unkept and untamed, the peaceful and serene, with each stroke of paint there is a solace to be discovered, a memory, a moment.
"When interpreting the landscapes that surround me through my work, I like to cancel out the unnecessary noise and look at the beauty in its raw form, contrast and texture - all elements which I like to highlight in my paintings and that bring me a moment of solace, a sense of place and somewhere to escape to that is familiar, yet also unknown, much like life itself."
