Georgia Hill (b.1988) is a multidisciplinary Australian artist, specialising in type-based, monochromatic artworks and installations.
Hill’s poetic phrasing creates an ongoing dialogue based on memory, reflection, and experience, applied to unique structures and contrasting environments. Moving constantly and exploring new mediums, Hill's works are both personal and ambiguous, inviting the viewer to apply their own context and meaning. Hill has forged a unique aesthetic within the contemporary and street art scenes, working extensively across national and international projects. Her practice is shaped by the continued contrasts of landscapes and cities, natural forms and structured facades, and intense reflections against spontaneous response.
Hill has proved herself to be one of Australia’s leading street artists with a contemporary and conscious touch to her materials, surrounds and conceptual approach. Her works have spanned galleries and inner-city walls to 400ft abandoned buildings, painted across Canada, New Zealand, Iceland, Jordan, India, The United States, Japan and Indonesia, and working prolifically across Australia’s states.
