"The Spirit in Art" International Invite

Melanie was invited to exhibit at an International exhibition held in the Estense Castle, Ferrara Italy, during November 07. This Castle offers a mystic ambiance dating back to 1365, and featured 50 selected artists from around the world. Melanie's works included Spirit of Down Under and triptych Vision of the Outback, which were incredibly well received drawing accolades from a large number of exhibiting artists, the organiser Paola Trevisan, gallerists and critics. She has been invited to join the European Artists Community which is a springboard for accessing many Exhibitions throughout the world.
MELANIE MILLER
A soul born of Africa, now domiciled in Australia, together with use of
vibrant colour, varied textures and mixed media juxtapose to present
the unique talent that is Melanie Miller.
In your face, powerful, abstract images encapsulate her fresh and unusual Afro – Australasian perspective on her environment.
Influences and background are a large part of what makes Melanie’s work
exceptional. It is the tapestry of Egypt in her mother, Russian in her
father and a youth at one with sea and sky in Muizenberg Cape Town that
is woven into her work.
After her first exhibition in Bondi in 2003, Melanie received a
significant number of commissions to paint for private collectors in
Australia, USA, South Africa and Europe.
