In surreal snippets from her internal cinema Stickymonger captures the quiet beauty of daily life.

Finished with neon and holographic details, Sweet Junkfood centres on one of the artist’s signature manga-esque characters in a candid moment of leisure.

Dualities surface throughout her practice – self-care and guilty pleasure, reality and fantasy. In this instance, the aspirational pursuit of tennis and the illicit indulgence of fast food. Such juxtapositions, Stickymonger believes, “are what life is about.”

Stickymonger6 collaborationsStickymonger creates manga-esque portraits with subtle elements of surrealism. Young contemplative women pose in familiar settings – eating, smoking and exploring. In monochrome and pastel colour palettes, hazy textures are rendered in multiple layers of spray paint and acrylic. The artist also makes fibreglass sculptures, murals and large-scale vinyl installations. A range of influences inform her practice. In particular 19th century modernist Italian painter Giorgio de Chirico and Japanese anime from the late 1970s and 80s such as Galaxy Express 999 and Toward Terra. But above all, Stickmonger’s main inspiration is life itself – “I just want to capture these never-ending moments and feelings that inspire me.”
