  Donna Davis is a multi-disciplinary artist who examines human and non-human relationships with respect to ecological health, and is often embedded within ecological research projects to inspire her practice.  Playing between science fact and science fiction, her work tells stories that examine ecological systems through a creative lens; exploring imagined futures and constructing new ways of ‘seeing’ complex natural systems and our role within them.

  Davis has exhibited widely in solo and selected group exhibitions, had her work feature in international, state and national touring exhibitions; won prizes such as Sunshine Coast Environmental Award, Queensland Regional Art Award, and been a finalist in Waterhouse Natural Science Art Prize, Northern Beaches Environmental Art and Design Prize and Sunshine Coast Art Awards. Davis has undertaken residencies with: Queensland State Archives, Brisbane Botanic Gardens, Queensland Herbarium, Department of Environment and Science, Australian Tropical Herbarium and University of Miami. She holds a Bachelor of Arts (ART) for Curtin University and has works held in both public and private collections.
