Brad M Collins is a multi-disciplinary artist based on birpai land in Lake Cathie, NSW.
Brad creates a surreal world where brightly coloured, anthropomorphic characters live alongside masked figures and symbolically charged objects. This surreal landscape comes to life through oil paintings, exhibitions, illustrations, murals and merchandise.
His works often fuse humour with deeper meaning, utilising these contrasting, yet surprisingly complimentary ideas to explore existential themes and internal reflection.
Whether it’s gallery exhibitions, murals or merchandise, Brad’s creative world is full of vibrant energy and clever detail.
