Welcome to
The Beautiful and Useful Studio
We are an art studio that work around the world creating projects with communities and organisations, and we share our existing body of work with Festivals, Galleries and Museums.
We are powerful advocates for diverse stories; LGBTQI+, First Nations, and Art for Children, and embody an inclusive approach to Art Making and Community.
We focus on joy and play to connect with people and share important messages through art.
Sustainability is at the core of everything we do.
We specialise in large-scale immersive art experiences and community workshops
