Who?
I'm Elyse, a Taranaki-based artist and aspiring designer with a passion for creating. From painting and 3D sculpture to graphic and product design, I enjoy experimenting with different materials and processes to develop my creative practice. My work is shaped by my interests in people, cultural identity and the stories that connect us to the past.
