Artwork Description

'What We Are' by George Hall. Acrylic Paint on canvas.

'What We Are' by George Hall is a celebration of exactly that - what we are.

I painted this piece as a response to all the noise and division around identity, gender, and how people choose to live and express themselves. For me, it’s not about choosing sides or fitting into boxes — it’s about recognising the full range of who we are as human beings.

Every colour in this painting stands for something - not just difference, but connection. These layers cross over each other, push through, sit beside one another. Just like we do. It’s all in there - strength, softness, certainty, doubt. The whole mix.

I wanted this painting to say: you’re allowed to be all of it. You don’t have to explain. You don’t have to justify. You just get to be.

This work is about presence. It’s about acceptance. And it’s about taking up space - with colour, with honesty, and with pride.

Artist Bio

George is a multi-media artist based in Sydney Australia, with paintings and mixed-media works represented in private and public collections globally.

Trained in formal figurative practices and techniques, honed over three decades in international textile and fashion design, George now paints seven days a week, loves turning mistakes into ideas, and is equally adept observing formal rules and breaking them for a reason.

His work is energetic, calming and whimsical, and reflects the semi-tropical colours of his native New Zealand, a Fijian childhood and the dazzling colours of Australian nature and urban life. He incorporates layers in mixed media, acrylics, collage and glazes, applied with brushes, sponges and rough-textured towels and sometimes dyeing natural canvas first to create background and depth.

George’s art is fluid and uplifting, with signature collections including The Funk, Freehand, Optimist Heart, Silent Paradise, News, and the Gradual series.
