About the artist

"I create art that offers an escape from reality, inviting the viewer to get lost in these little surreal worlds"
"I create art that offers an escape from reality, inviting the viewer to get lost in these little surreal worlds"

Based in Melbourne, Australia, Nkosi Ndlovu started out as a painter but soon found herself drawn to other creative mediums like graphic design, photography, and, ultimately, collage. She found herself drawn to surrealism and discovered that collage was the perfect way to bring those ideas to life. Nkosi’s work focuses primarily on Black women, placing them in peaceful, dreamlike scenes that feel both grounded and otherworldly. By playing with scale, texture, and shape, she creates art that offers an escape from reality, inviting herself and the viewer to get lost in these little surreal worlds and find their own stories in them.

My work has been featured by Frankie Magazine, Saatchi Art, and shown in Melbourne, Miami, London, Milan, Belgium, and beyond.
