CARIZZA TEAGUE – Screen Printing, Shibori & textiles<\/strong>
Carizza Teague is a Sydney based artist originally from Scone in regional NSW. She studied textile design at the Eastern Sydney Institute of Technology. Instead of being disheartened by the move of hand printing to digital production, she decided to launch her own hands-on studio.
She has been running screen-printing studios for the past 15 years across independent, community driven creative spaces and now leads The Printroom at Monster Mouse Studios in Marrickville.
Carizza teaches screen printing and shibori dyeing, prints merch for countless local bands and organisations and spends time on her own creative practice.
Her work illustrates the screen-printed form scoured away, duplicated and layered until the desired aesthetic has been achieved. She also plays with textiles in abstract ways. Memory, time and identity and recurring themes in her work. <\/summary>\n

YOKO KAWADA – Kintsugi<\/strong>
Trained in interior design in 1990s London, Yoko’s work is shaped by extensive global travel and a deep appreciation for cultural storytelling through objects and space.
Now based in Sydney, she founded her studio and developed the SQUARE+ROUND washbasin – crafted from Japanese porcelain tiles and shortlisted for the Etsy Awards in 2016.
Her work explores a “unity of opposites”: wabi-sabi and precision, tradition and innovation, structure and fluidity. In recent years, she has collaborated with Tajimi tile artisans in Japan and expanded into traditional practices including Kintsugi and Makie, which she also teaches.<\/summary>\n

\"Damien<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
DAMIEN SUPLINA<\/strong> is an Inner West\u2013based artist working across painting and mixed media. His work is raw, instinctive, and driven by a strong connection to music, memory, and subculture.
He draws inspiration from artists like Jean-Michel Basquiat, along with the worlds of live music and football. His pieces move between scenes from his own band, portraits of figures like Nick Cave and Kurt Cobain, and recurring references to the game.
Bold marks, layered textures, and loose composition give the work its energy and honesty.
While art is a side practice, Damien’s work has earned awards, recognition and a growing following among collectors drawn to its authenticity and boldness. It is less about perfection and more about making something real.<\/summary>\n
