Margaret Christianson is a Melbourne-based multidisciplinary artist who creates metal sculpture and contemporary acrylic painting inspired by the natural environment.
Latest News
The first half of the year is shaping up to be wonderfully full, with lots of making, exhibiting, and learning underway before we head north to the Whitsundays for the winter months.
I’m honoured to have been invited to exhibit in the BYS Easter Art Show and Off the Wall with Warrandyte Artisans, both much-loved events in the Victorian art calendar. Alongside these exhibitions, I’ve also signed up for a 10-week art class at the Victorian Artists Society (VAS) — a chance to slow down, refine skills, and explore new ideas within a studio environment with other artists.
Last year my work centred strongly around birds — peacocks, emu, and kangaroos — while this year is unfolding with a clear shift toward marine life. Humpback whales, stingrays, and jellyfish are emerging as key inspirations, influencing both my sculpture and painting practice.
My metalwork is currently available at Bulleen Art & Garden, one of my favourite places where art and nature meet beautifully. Works from my recent solo exhibition GIFT are also still available to view and purchase online through Gallery Unbound.
It's an exciting and busy time in the studio, with plenty more to come.
Links to upcoming exhibitions and events will be shared here — please check back soon.
