ELISE SLATER

Elise Slater is a Sydney-based artist working primarily in oil. Her practice is a means of exploring and deepening connection to nature, and to the art of noticing and responding to place.

​

Through painting, Elise approaches art as a form of mindfulness—a way of slowing down, looking closely, and appreciating what might otherwise pass unseen. In a fast-paced world, her work is an act of attention: taking time to attune to and respond to the subtle details of the environment. For Elise, painting is a sacred process that expands our capacity to see and to value the subtle magic of the everyday.

​

Her approach is guided by three core principles: to appreciate the beauty of existence, to add to it, and to continually deepen the capacity to do both.
