Description

Mural Name:  Soul Sister Salon

Artist: Sara Catena

Artist Bio:

Sara Catena was raised on a diet of nature, traditional handcrafts, and pots of tea, in a small country town on the coast of New Zealand, moving to Melbourne in early 1992.

A local Frankston resident, Sara’s uplifting and naïve work inspires art teachers and students worldwide…she has worked with teachers and children from places as far flung and diverse as Bahrain and Uruguay…she delights in seeing the results and connecting with them personally via skype.

“As a painter, I work narratively with acrylic, oil stick and embroidery thread on recycled elements. These works express my natural delight and enthusiasm for life… a vitality and a joy that speaks to the heart. My beautiful sensory installations are highly kinaesthetic immersive art spaces aimed to soothe additional needs families at large events.”

“In the space between you and the work, is a bridge. My hope is that you cross that bridge and find some Joy there.” 

Description of Artwork:

Welcome to Soul scissor salon where the tunes are loud, conversations raucous and the hair is wild!

Repaint Frankston is a campaign to help us imagine these shops brimming again with life and good old fashion trade, adding much needed hope and joy in the meantime.
