Peta Hysen: Australia
Peta is an Australian artist with a passion for the environment. Having travelled the world and lived in Europe for many years, her heart never strayed far away from early experiences of the beauty and majestic wonder of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia.
Her artworks represent beauty through abstract representations of the "Great Barrier Reef", coral in all its glorious colours, while highlighting the impact of pollution and plastics through the introduction of barcodes that are visible on every painting. The black and white stripes are found on the majority of plastics that enter our oceans, in turn, threatening one of our seven wonders of the world along with its ecosystem. Through Peta's passion for colour and playfulness, she is quietly sharing the message of the importance of recycling in helping preserve the beauty of the Great Barrier Reef.
Peta supports "The Great Barrier Reef Legacy Conservation Fund" and donates 10% of her profits from each painting sold to this charity. She has participated in both group and solo exhibitions in Switzerland, with several paintings sold.
