Banksia on big sky by Thom Muir in Sydney
Banksia on big sky
The banksia releases its seeds when the bushfires come through. The destruction is its rebirth. The banksia knows there will be no thick undergrowth to suffocate its seedlings and they will have the best chance for new life in the fertile soil after the burn.
In the painting, the banksia’s skin is like a microcosm of the burnt sky, they are connected; two parts of the same process. We see liquid, solid and gas move in the same dance at different paces. The Banksia is in harmony with its country, in tune with the rhythm of destruction and creation.
The bushfires are getting worse, but the destruction can bring creation. I like to think that one day we can live in balance with the fire like the people of the First Nations did before, and continue in the flow like the banksia.

Meet the Artist
Sydney, Australia Having started in the graffiti scene at a young age, now with over 15 years experience in the aerosol medium, I'm always interested in progressing the exciting, colourful, attention-grabbing energy of classic graffiti toward something less letter-based and more graphic, accessible for the whole community.
for this reason I'm currently interested in graphic and colourful character and landscape based, site-specific work, including elements related to the paintings context. At the moment I'm interested in moving into more large scale graphic images of Australian native flora and fauna depicted in my signature style.
I have never stopped expanding my exploration of different mediums, and have done everything from hand-painted leather jackets, to tee-shirt graphics, to boat decals, and of course a whole lot of homewares and furniture. I'm comfortable creating artwork either digitally or physically, whether with aerosols, chalk, paintbrush, or even a roller, so whatever the project don't hesitate to drop me a line.
Having worked for many years in film and television before moving into the public art sphere, I am also an experienced videographer, and I'm especially proficient in the production of video content focused on the creation of artworks, BTS and process videos.
Look forward to working with you soon!
