Alia Grinvalds is an Australian multimedia artist residing between Sydney and the Blue Mountains, on Gadigal and Dharug land. Her vibrant paintings feature oversaturated colors and organic forms, creating imagined landscapes where reality blurs. Alia’s work centres on finding the midpoint between representation and abstraction. Her current works could simply be read as an exploration of colour, form and mark-making, or, perhaps recognisable landmarks begin to emerge like roots, bodies of water, terraced fields, mountains, clouds and storms.
Conceptually, her art delves into themes of liminality—those ambiguous, in-between spaces. It plays with spatial and compositional uncertainty, questioning the viewer's perspective: Are we observing from above, below, or through? Additionally, the idea of simulacrum is evident, where representation diverges from its original context. Her bold, sometimes discordant color palettes render her works hyperreal and challenge notions of consensus reality.
Alia began her creative journey in music before transitioning to photography. While studying at NAS, she developed a focus on oil paintings and perspex installations, with landscape remaining a core theme. With experience in fashion, e-commerce, graphic design, and content production, Alia maintains a foundation in applied arts alongside her multidisciplinary art practice.
