Mahalia is an emerging Tasmanian artist and environmentalist based in Cygnet. In her artistic practice, she focuses on ceramic sculpture and paintings in acrylics. Her work is inspired by the interaction between humans and
nature, and the symbiosis of people and places. She showcases her love for environmental protection and custodianship, through displaying work that shows the beauty and fragility of so called ‘wild’ places.
