DEEVA ART
Inspired by the natural landscape and my engagement with it
inspiration
Deeva Muir's art is a vibrant fusion of her multicultural journey from a childhood in rubber plantations of Malaysia, her family origins in Sri Lankan Tamil heritage and her adulthood in the rich Indigenous cultural landscape of the Western Desert. With over 30 years of creative practice, her watercolour, textiles, and emerging ceramics work are deeply inspired by the desert's natural beauty and her family's cultural connections. Her paintings capture the interplay of light, texture, and spirit found in the arid environment, while her ceramics bring a new depth and tactile dimension to her visual language.

About
Her paintings capture the interplay of light, texture, and spirit found in the arid environment, while her recent explorations in ceramics bring new depth and tactile dimension to her visual language. Deeva’s emerging ceramics practice merges her refined watercolour techniques with the earthy materiality of clay, pushing her creative boundaries and affirming her dedication to continual artistic growth.
“I am bringing cross cultural insights to work with how I design and tell stories from an artistic point of view. My landscapes and ceramics seek to capture the attraction of beauty, veiled by the brutal extreme of desert conditions. The harsh, unforgiving heat of the sun on rocks, dead trees and blue skies, yet my relationship with the landscape is filtered through my exposure to my husband’s and children’s family’s spiritual and cultural connection to country, giving me insights into country I seek to communicate through these works.” Deeva
