Redefining Artistic Expression Through Movement & Medium

Sioux Tempestt is a contemporary artist specialising in public art, with a passion for transforming everyday environments into engaging, meaningful experiences. Her work spans murals, sculpture and integrated architectural elements, often drawing inspiration from the histories, ecologies and communities of each site. Whether working on a transport hub, school, or civic space, her goal is to create artworks that are not only visually compelling but that also foster a strong sense of place and connection.

Much of her practice centres on interpreting local narratives through a contemporary lens - using abstraction, pattern, colour and layered forms to build works that resonate with a broad audience. She enjoys working closely with stakeholders and communities to ensure each project is grounded in its environment and purpose. From exploring industrial heritage and natural waterways to capturing the movement of people across space, she aims to design works that speak to both the larger context and the smaller human moments within it.

Transcending Disciplines Through
Art & Expression

Public Art

My versatility with both design aesthetic and materiality allows me to work across a broad spectrum of public art projects - from murals, ephemeral art and festival entry statement pieces through to large sculptural works for private and commercial developments.

Murals

I have been designing and painting murals in Perth for many years, for both private and public spaces. Each mural is unique, created specifically for the client brief and location. I am experienced in small scale privately commissioned murals through to large scale public murals spanning 40 metres or more over multiple surfaces.

Workshops

Working with a broad section of the community including youth, I design and facilitate creative art workshops with a difference. Participants require no previous artistic experience or ability. I teach a broad range of skills from the basic principals of design, form, line and colour theory, through to composition and how to create balanced designs.
