About the artist
Caity Girle (Moon Girle) is a multidisciplinary artist, eager to find magic in the mundane. Her acute eye for detail helps her craft installations, sculptures, paintings, soundscapes, and textiles. Her explorations into methods and materials are forever in a state of flux; her one constant is colour. Caity collects objects that are re-imagined into new forms. Her work is pulled between physical reality and her imagination, aesthetically textural and vibrant, which evolves as she makes. Right now, her interactive and grandiose structures, attempt to hold the essence of ‘home’ and ‘nomadism’. She intends to enable acts of 'exchange' between the communities’ participants allowing space for self-awareness and reflection, in a fun and engaging way.
