Rushanthi Herath

Brisbane based mosaic artist, Rushanthi, has been creating modern, non-traditional and vibrant glass mosaics using self-taught techniques for the past 15 years. Rushanthi takes inspiration from our very own backyard. She incorporates the beautiful colours, shapes and patterns of the Australian landscape and nature into her mosaics to create beautiful, contemporary, meaningful and timeless pieces. Hundreds and thousands of pieces of stained glass, mirror and other natural materials (pebbles, shells, marble etc.) are arranged and re-arranged to create textured mosaics that radiate and reflect vibrant colours. She focuses on creating depth and dimension with various shapes and thicknesses to create one-of-a-kind and unique mosaics. She believes in creating art that provoke deep thought and imagination and offer a visual and tangible experience. She is a firm believer that art communicates differently to each individual, which allows them to engage and connect to incite special meaning and interpretation by relating them to personal experiences. With this in mind she refrains from naming most of her art. 

Rushanthi hopes that the passion, detail and creativity that  she has put into each piece will be enjoyed by all that view her beautiful creations.Website: https://www.dressedupwalls.com/
