Saltwater Dreamtime

I’m Zachary Bennett-Brook, welcome to my artistic journey. Throughout my artistic exploration I have grown whilst exploring many different designs and mediums, until I discovered and created my own style which best represents my culture, my passions and myself. Growing up in Wollongong I have always been surrounded by water and have always been involved with water based activities. Being Torres Strait Islander water has always played a vital role throughout my life, as it is ingrained within my cultural heritage and is often represented throughout many of my artworks and designs. I find and gather inspiration in the oceans blue walls and sandy floors, often exploring different colour tones commonly associated with the sea throughout my works. I strive to create artworks that are of the highest quality, representing my passion for surfing in conjunction with my Indigenous background to ultimately showcase my artistic flare. My ambition is to create and develop works, which are engaging and aesthetically appealing, whilst allow me to grow artistically and professionally.
