Mini Graff

Mini Graff

Born in New Zealand, currently based in
AUSTRALIA.

Mini Graff is an artist whose work tends to large scale mural projects, both private and public.

Mini stencils and paints images on to a variety of media (walls, boards, wallpaper, rarely canvas)  which strongly relate to the given environment and community, transforming an anonymous repetitive urban landscape into a unique and personal aesthetic experience. She works with local identities/ characters, artists, musicians and businesses to create each unique project.
 
Recent major commissions include Contempo; Ikea Home Project and Maitland Regional Art Gallery
