About the Item

Surge is built from 11 layers of small, energetic strokes, creating the sense of a crowd moving with shared purpose. Up close, each mark represent an individual, but from afar you see that together they form a powerful collective surge. The bright colours of the piece captures the pulse of human connection, as we all travel through life together.

Her pieces depict bustling crowds and abstract forms through Intricate layering and expressive strokes. Her bold, rhythmic compositions reflect the exploration of human connection, movement, and the energy of collective spaces. Murrell explores modern-day life, finding beauty in the everyday hustle and bustle, such as the mundane commute or in the more exciting life events such as marathons, concerts, festivals and sporting matches. Drawing inspiration from urban landscapes and social dynamics, the artist’s work is a study in the contrasts - between chaos and order, individuality and community. The technique, which involves the repetition of small, distinct strokes, creates rhythmic patterns that draw the viewer into an almost meditative state, inviting contemplation of both the individual elements and the larger whole.
