Born in 1981, Sarah Sculley is a Sunshine Coast-based street artist whose vibrant and dynamic creations reflect her passion for colour, typography, and the female form. Her work seamlessly blends these elements into layered, eye-catching compositions that find life on diverse surfaces, including canvas, paper, surfboards, and skate decks.

Sarah’s artistic journey has been one of continuous evolution and global resonance. Since her first solo exhibition in Shanghai, China, in 2005, her work has travelled the world, captivating audiences in the UK, USA, Asia, and across Australia. Her art has earned widespread recognition, including features in Home Design Magazine, Grand Designs, the Sunshine Coast Daily, and idN (International Design Network). A proud finalist in the 2022 Art Lovers Australia Prize, Sarah continues to push creative boundaries with every project.

A true specialist in large-scale art, Sarah brings bold visions to life through her extra-large canvas works, murals, and impactful street art. Her ability to transform spaces with her distinctive style has established her as a leading figure in contemporary street art.

With a mission to create art that sparks connection and change, Sarah Sculley’s work transcends aesthetics. Whether displayed in a gallery, adorning a city wall, or gracing the surface of a surfboard, her art invites viewers to explore the interplay of femininity, strength, and bold creativity.

Each piece tells a story, brought to life by Sarah’s signature use of colour and form. Her artistic voice resonates with energy and purpose, making her an enduring and influential force in the street art community.
