WAYS TO LOVE

Love has a funny way of sneaking into the most ordinary moments. A rambling phone call, a slightly wonky birthday cake baked with love, your mum checking you've made it home, a tiny treasure made by little hands or your partner making you laugh until your belly hurts. is a joyful ode to all the different shapes love takes. The big, the small, the messy, the tender, the wonderfully unexpected. These little acts of love accumulate, weaving themselves into the fabric of our lives, filling it with colour, warmth and a richness that's hard to put into words. A celebration of the beautiful, imperfect magic of loving and being loved. An extra note just for you guys: The inspiration was all the family moments overseas and then back home as I celebrated my birthday and realised how damn lucky I am to be surrounded by so much love and so many versions of it too.

Nastia Gladushchenko

A mural artist and painter living and working in Katoomba. Her work examines the relationship between humans and the plant world and she uses botanical imagery to remind us of the importance of our connection to the natural environment and to each other.

With a background in Interior Architecture, exploring the way our environments affect our bodies and minds is of strong interest to her and by creating pieces featuring imagery of oversized botanicals, she hopes to transport people to a place between a playground and a meditative space.

As well as running a personal art practice, she’s interested in creating pieces for and with the community to allow them to access art and to experience its’ benefits in public spaces.
