Yvette Vexta

Yvette Vexta is a self-taught multidisciplinary artist from Sydney, Australia, based in New York City. She is recognized as one of the leading female artists in the street and contemporary urban art scene and one of the first women street artists in what was once a very male-dominated field. 

Her career started on the streets of Melbourne in the mid-2000s, armed with a backpack of spray paint and stencils. She began leaving her mark and messages on the streets, and soon her work flourished into her unique bold and colorful aesthetic. This led her to paint murals in cities such as New York, San Francisco, Paris, London, Berlin, Singapore, and Mexico City, and into the gallery world, having now exhibited at The National Gallery of Australia, Saatchi Gallery in the UK, Urban Nation in Berlin, Art With Me Festival in Tulum and Banksy's Cans Festival in London. 

Vexta's artwork seeks to investigate and meditate on our connection to the natural world, drawing on studies in mythology, cosmology, quantum science, consciousness and life/ death dualities. She creates art as seen through her unique psychedelic lens, whilst keeping her feet firmly rooted in a deep ecological feminine perspective.
