Lauren Greatorex
Malgana, Nyikina, Jabirr Jabirr
Saltwater in my veins, seagrass in my soul, and stories woven through every brushstroke.
I’m a Malgana, Nyikina and Jabir Jabir woman, connected to the sands of the Kimberley and forever drawn to the turquoise waters of Gathaagudu (Shark Bay). My art is a living archive of culture, connection, and Country, expressed through vibrant canvases, digital design, cultural storytelling, and ocean-inspired creativity.
As the artist and founder behind Gathaagudu, I create detailed, meaningful works that speak to identity, resistance, and legacy.
When I’m not painting or pixel-pushing, you’ll find me chasing the ocean tides, good yarns, visiting family, and dreaming up the next big idea inspired by Country, culture, or canvas.
