Karri McPherson

Karri McPherson is a contemporary Visual Artist who specialises in painting and mural art. Within her work, Karri uses geometry as a mechanism to influence the way that our public spaces are experienced by re-contextualising themes and ideas into eye-catching artworks. Her geometric designs are influenced by everything from modern landscapes to historical symbolism, and she uses these topical themes as tools to enhance her artwork’s relevance, meaning and visual impact. To bolster the conceptual rigour of her murals, Karri undertakes extensive research into site locations and relevant themes to inform the design process.

By investing dedicated time into understanding the proposed themes for each of her projects, Karri thoughtfully translates concepts into visual language for different communities within the public to appreciate. Each of her murals embody distinct characteristics that convey pertinent subjects and ideas to diverse audiences in an exciting and artistic way. Her powerful use of geometry is inspired by an intrinsic desire for balance, unity and symbolism, and her unique compositions invite communities to celebrate the timelessness and universality of shape, form and colour.

Throughout the past four years, Karri has completed twenty-two murals and public art installations throughout Australia and the United States.
