Elena Larkin is an Australian artist based on Gadigal Country in Sydney.
Her practice is grounded in the sensorial and immersive experience of plein air painting. Growing up in rural NSW on Bundjalung Land in the Northern Rivers, much of Elena’s childhood was spent playing outside and helping her family on their fruit orchard. This early love for other animals and the outside world continues to influence her, and ecological issues further motivate the focus of her work.
