Zory McGrath

Zory McGrath is a Melbourne based contemporary artist.She holds major in Oils and Traditional Icon painting, with both BA and MA Fine art from her formal training in Bulgaria and England. The journey of her art involves fictional imaginary, representational scenes from local areas and surroundings, emotive figurative depictions as well as various urban perspectives. She is well known for her authentic style, timeless motifs and simplicity in her painterly depictions. Never having subscribed to a single art genre; each of her series of works captures a single moment in time and depicts a chapter in the creative journey of the artist. Zory deploys a naive painting style often using block colours, minimalistic forms and sim- plified perspectives. She sees painting to be the source of reflection and communication, between the transcendence and immediate environment. Her painting practices continuously evolve, as part of the ever changing world around us. She feels moved to create images that, “Seize the eye, intrigues the imagination and strive to fill one with wonder”. McGrath’s work can be found in galleries both locally and internationally.
