Rachel Burke: Weaving Whimsy, Stitching Stories, Creating Joy.
Rachel Burke is a practicing multidisciplinary artist, designer, and author based in Brisbane, Australia.
Known for her vibrant, tactile wearable artworks and iconic tinsel creations, her work is inspired by a love for naive craft materials and transforming the mundane into the magical.
Rachel has exhibited her work in gallery spaces across Australia, including The Museum of Brisbane, Saint Cloche Gallery, Hamer Hall, The Australian Centre of the Moving Image, Enough Space, GAFFA, and the Redlands Art Gallery.
She has also published three books with Hardie Grant. Craft Roach, Be Dazzling, and Daphne & Daisy.
Rachel loves working with clients and collaborating with brands to create products, installations, and organic content!
She has worked on creative collaborations with numerous global brands including Disney, ASOS, LEGO, Barbie, Audible, Airbnb, Nikon, Visa, West Elm, Pottery Barn, Frankie Magazine, Sephora, Mecca, My Little Pony, and many more.
Her work has also been acquired by notable performers and artists Harry Styles, Miley Cyrus, Drew Barrymore, Alisha Gaddis (Grammys), Lauren Conrad, Kesha, Mindy Kaling, Delta Goodrem, and even Beyonce’s children.
As Burke claims in her statement, the "true subject of my work is the painting process, how I build a painting when searching for equivalencies for what I think and feel." Burke's paintings explore landscapes dense with foliage, awash in color, and rendered with an aggression of brushstrokes.
