Moira de la Hunty

Moira de la Hunty is a visual artist, born in Northern Ireland, and now living and working in Western Australia. She is influenced by her background as a medical doctor and her observation of life and mortality, as well as an interest in fashion and facade. "Moira de la Hunty’s series of work … engages in a universal discourse on humanity’s impermanence and the fragility of existence.” (Paola Anselmi, Independent Curator, 2013).

Moira is an artist with an intense gaze on the world. Her paintings tell stories, with a narrative left open to interpretation. Moira enjoys portraying different moods and creates scenes which capture a moment in time, often with mystery and tension or wistful irony.
