Ian Mutch

Ian Mutch is an artist that combines aerosol, acrylics and inks.

Ian merges layers of textures, fragments of landscapes, nature and character illustrations. The resulting artwork can be viewed on two levels – enjoyed from a distance and admired in detail close-up.

Ian’s work explores concepts of memory, story and place, seeking to absorb and entertain the viewer through whimsical narrative, movement and design aesthetics. Paintings are created on a variety of scales – in the studio, the streets and on land.

Born in South Africa, Ian Mutch draws inspiration from landscapes, animals, travelling, stories and patterns. His artwork has won awards, given life to public spaces, and featured in well-known publications. He has co-published Kingbrown Magazine and has been an industry speaker at Agideas Melbourne, the Design Institute of Australia and Semi-Permanent Sydney.
