about

Dana Kinter is an artist living and making on Kaurna land, South Australia. Drawing from the natural environment, Dana has created a signature style that embraces Australia’s native flora and fauna. Dana employs a subdued colour palette with emphasis on the natural characteristics of her materials, using pencil acrylic on timber in her paintings. Always exploring creative mediums, Dana also creates unique ceramics, carving and painting with a distinctive focus on colour, line and form, onto hand built objects that serve as a base for her artworks.

Collaborations include Australian Iconic fashion label Gorman 2017 & 2019 clothing and homewares and Adairs homewares 2019, 2020 & 2021.
