#13 | Mia Boe
LoveArt is pleased to present the thirteenth iteration of our nano project space, Love[f]Art, with a project by Mia Boe, Dream Room.
Mia Boe is a Melbourne-based painter from Brisbane with Butchulla and Burmese ancestry. Her work is influenced by the inheritance and ‘disinheritance’ of these two cultures, often responding to Empire’s deliberate and violent interferences with the cultural heritages of Burma/Myanmar and K’gari (Fraser Island).
