Marcus is a Sydney-based artist and Senior Layout Artist at Industrial Light & Magic. A graduate of the National Art School, he spent a decade living in Japan, an experience that continues to shape his sensitivity to space, silence, and subtle shifts in perception.
His paintings move between abstraction and figuration, often built through thick, physical layers of paint and restless, searching marks. Drawing from a life in visual effects—where framing, movement, and unseen structure matter—Marcus approaches the canvas as both a field of energy and a stage for ideas.
At the heart of his practice is a fascination with vibration: the peculiar frequency of a moment, a memory, a passing thought. His works reflect the critical and the mundane alike—because even in the smallest, most forgettable fragments of daily life, there is a charge, a quiet magic.
Sometimes the result is playful, even comic. Sometimes it leans into something more personal or political. The form is never fixed; it bends to fit the idea. What remains constant is an invitation to slow down—to spend time, to look again, and to discover your own meanings moving beneath the surface.
