In this episode, we spoke with Illustrator, Letterer, Artist and Designer Gemma O’Brien.
Gemma is one of the most well known illustrators in Australia right now. Over the past five years or so, she has been constantly in demand for her murals, illustrations, artwork and speaking gigs here in Australia and also around the world. Her work takes on a variety of forms, from calligraphic brushwork, illustration and digital type.
We spoke about the value of temporary works due to their fleeting nature, the challenge of keeping up with what the industry is craving, living in an experience driven age when it comes to cultural value, the inevitable commercialisation of authenticity and much more.
