Ella Pininta is an emerging artist based in Naarm/Melbourne, Australia. Ella grew up in Batam, Indonesia, and worked as an interior architect in Jakarta before migrating to Australia. She is currently also working as a graphic designer.
Ella sees her practice as a permission to wander by creating openings for poetic overlap, often through the act of collaging. She is interested in the space between things and the potential for curated shifts in meaning.
A version of this is explored in the way her work tends to playfully inhabit an existing space/format. Work is transposed through different contexts, responding to specific sites and narratives to engage with the felt experience.
