Art for Hire
Hello
Melissa here, I am an established Multidisciplinary Artist based in the East Coast of Australia.
My style is intricate, detailed, contemporary in it's various forms, with lots of colour! I love both masculine elements of timber & metal, balanced with feminine elements of rope & textiles. I am known for blurring the lines between art, design and craft.
I often think BIG, creating large-scale public artworks such as large sculptures and art installations, and am passionate about bringing together community through my art. I have a range of artworks below that are available for hire across Australia, or contact me by email or complete this contact form for enquiries.
Hope to connect with you soon - Melissa Carey (read more about the artist HERE)
The Spiral of Life
The helical spiral, as found in nature, is essentially the transmission of energy, radiating out and drawing in, infinitely and eternally. Therefore we exist in nature, flowing with energy, and as we connect with each other, it creates an infinite flow of energy and unity - the very essence of life itself flowing through us.
The sculpture series has now expanded from being made entirely of pine timber and screws, to steel spanning 4 metres tall, in a parametric, helical spiral that Melissa designed & built herself.
Her largest piece was recently showcased at Swell Sculpture Festival, and is currently available for hire or purchase. Click here to see more information. Or contact Melissa for enquires

Healing Heart Sculpture
‘Love is what heals.
Love is what transcends fear and dissolves pain.
Love is what makes our skin tingle, it leaves warmth in our smile and opens our heart.
Love is what inspires kindness and compassion.
Love is the radiating light from within.
Love brings peace and stillness.
Love is the passion to create.
Love is what aligns us to our true soul calling.
Love is what creates connection to ourselves and to each other.
Love forges the way to joy and bliss.
To feel love is why we are here on this earth, in this human form.
Love is the medicine.
Love is what heals.
Love is all there is.
Step into the giant heart sculpture as you call in more love and tune into the wisdom of your heart.’
The Heart Sculpture is 4 metres made from timber cladding and steel structure, with strong steel base plates. You can walk inside the sculpture and it is accessible for wheelchairs and prams. It is available for hire or for purchase, contact Melissa here for enquiries.

Moments In Time - Tunnel Art Installation
“Moments in Time” is a 9 metre woven tunnel art installation that glows in the night. To walk through the tunnel is to pass through a web of consciousness, to be present with all the senses, to truly experience the moment, let out the inner child, and unleash the curiosity within. It is made with recycled t-shirt yarn and glows in UV light or bright lights.
It is available for hire or for purchase, contact Melissa here for enquiries.
