Tarcis Fenech is a chronically ill, Maltese queer artist from Dja Dja Wurrung land. They are inspired by the natural features of the landscapes that shape their identity: from the forms characteristic of Malta’s picturesque sandstone grottos, to the textures found in the bushland where they grew up. Tarcis specialises in crafting earthenware clay pieces that appear plucked straight from the ocean, or from deep in the bush. Through their art, Tarcis encourages people to discover the whimsy in their everyday lives.
