ABOUT

Pamela Tang is an Australian contemporary painter whose abstract and still life works emerge from quiet moments gathered within her surrounding nature. Her paintings reflect a balance between instinctive creation and thoughtful exploration, unfolding a dialogue between the raw and refined that invites stillness and contemplation.

With a background in Fine Art, Industrial and Interior Design, Tang’s practice reveals an ongoing interplay between art, craft, and design. Working intuitively with acrylics, rice and tissue paper, she develops layered compositions that explore texture and materiality, transforming the surrounding space into a place of tranquility. The raw imperfections in her work encourage close observation, revealing subtle details that echo the silence and stillness found in nature.

Her work embodies the belief that true expression is quiet, not seeking to convince but to speak softly through its presence.
