Artist Bio

Erin is an emerging artist working traditionally in watercolour and gouache. She commenced her Bachelor of Creative Arts at Flinders University and ACArts in 2020 and graduated in 2023. In the same year, she was selected for the Helpmann Graduate Exhibition and received the Hill Smith Art Advisory Award and Square Holes Award. She has exhibited in the Parklands Art Prize, Collective Haunt, and SALA.

Renfrey’s practice explores inner worlds, ecology and imagination. She investigates these ideas through anthropomorphism and magical realism, merging our world with fantastical elements.
