Tallulah Nunez is a mid-career artist who creates multi-layered abstract paintings, assemblages and most recently drawings of intimate imaginary and emotionally charged spaces often inhabited by mystical people. She has been a finalist in the prestigious Parkin Drawing Award, the Miles Art Award, the Tasman Art Award and the Cleveland Art Award.

Contemporary stories from her own experience and family lore, andsnippets or news from the ups and downs of her everyday life combine with nuanced vulnerability and an expressive and experimental hand to create psychologically layered drawing/paintings about the human condition and her/our place within the madness of contemporary life. Her sensitive and questioning introspection and emotional flip flopping means nothing is too obvious or too pretty in her works.

Melancholic self portraits merge with real and imagined characters adapted to the story and how she is feeling at the time. The drawing/paintings often feel like they are questioning themselves and herself and this questioning and blurring of recollection and psyche combined with the artist's joy of exploring drawing for drawing sake make for images that have longevity and a strongly recognisable yet ever transient voice.
A normally reticent and introspective character her mind nevertheless seems to be questioning the bigger harder issues and to flit excitedly between concern and celebration.
