Paintings by Tania Wursig

Australian born artist Tania Wursig is of European heritage and has been based in both Sydney and Tahiti for the past decade.

Primarily a figurative and portrait painter, Wursig’s work can best be described as a celebration of life, nature and the ‘feminine’. Her paintings are imbued with strong cultural influences inspired by her travels and her exposure to the Tahitian people and traditions.

A graduate of Sydney College of the Arts, majoring in fashion and textile design, Wursig experiments with the textural possibilities of painting on collaged surfaces of textiles, coconut husk, postcards and various ephemera collected on her travels. These grounds add narrative to the paintings connecting the subjects with culture and place.
