About this artwork
My work is a reflection meditation on the sublime, melancholy, and speculative wonder, using birds as signifiers of beauty, mortality, and diversity.
Embedded in my work are the traditions of the meticulous processes of drawing and printmaking which I use to create contemporary images that carry paradoxical imagery such as birds in bottles, trees with skeletal branches, or birds with words and skulls embedded in their plumage, to name a few.

Martin King is an accomplished Australian artist working across drawing, printmaking, watercolour, artist books, and animation, with a background including a Masters of Fine Art from Monash University. His meticulous, materially-rich techniques include working on diverse surfaces—from paper to repurposed library books—using dry pigment, graphite, encaustic wax, and more, blending precision with chance and layering historical references. Profoundly inspired by nature, mortality, and the sublime, he creates emotionally resonant works that balance beauty and strangeness, ultimately conveying hope and an embrace of life's complexity.
