Visual Artist | Musician | Psychologist | Author
Eva is a dynamic multi-disciplinary creative, whose artistic journey spans music, visual art and literature. With a passion for expression through diverse mediums, she has carved out a unique space in the creative world.
As an accomplished visual artist, her work spans both 2D fine art and scenic art for movies and theatre productions, including productions such as Mamma Mia (2021 Matt Ward), The Possessed (2021 Chris Sun), and Blacksite (2021 Asbury Park Pictures), and various public art installations, school, and community theatre shows. She was Set Designer for Every Brilliant Thing (2023 That Production Company), which was the winner of the Brisbane Powerhouse Best Independent Production 2023 Matilda Awards. She has exhibited extensively including solo shows at Brisbane’s Powerhouse, Judith Wright Centre, and the Queensland Performing Arts Centre (QPAC), as well as the Agora Gallery in New York.
Her musical career is marked by eclectic performances, having fronted indie rock band The Tonights, as singer and keyboardist, as well as edgy punk cabaret duo, Shoot The Piano Player, where she performed as lead vocalist, keyboardist, and bassist. She currently performs bass and occasional vocals for high energy punk metal band, Kill Pill. Eva’s first single she wrote for Kill Pill, “Pills for Kids,” has been featured in the soundtrack of Steven Boyle’s horror film, “Demon Disorder.”
Eva’s creativity extends beyond the stage and studio into the world of mental health and writing. She holds a Master’s Degree in Psychology and Post Graduate Certificate in Public Health, and has published several research papers in the field, contributing to the advancement of well-being and public health. She is also the author and illustrator of children’s book, Little Things Big Things, that reflects her passion for environmentalism and social justice. Eva was the recipient of a 2023 Regional Arts Development Fund (RADF) grant, enabling her to create a large-scale immersive and educational adaptation of her book, which was attended by over three thousand participants. The book blends her academic background in psychology and public health, along with her visual career, presenting important themes about emotional well-being and the environment in a way that is accessible to young readers.
With a career that bridges the gap between art, music, writing and mental health, Eva is a versatile artist, constantly evolving and indiscriminately exploring the boundaries of creativity and human behaviour across multiple disciplines.
