Natalie Chung is a multidisciplinary artist working across painting and three-dimensional forms. Enjoyment is central to the art-making process, with experimentation in materials, textures, forms, and vivid colour used to explore how meaning emerges through making. Her earlier works focused on portraits and human faces, depicting both familiar figures and imagined characters. Recent works have expanded into three-dimensional forms, using materials such as clay, fabric, cardboard, and pipe cleaners to create character-like structures and dolls with a distinct presence. The practice develops between the imaginary and the real, reflecting on digital living, memory, and emotional displacement. By giving form to internal states and abstract situations, the work creates tangible forms that function as both emotional refuge and a way of understanding lived experience.
