Misery is one of our ‘Artists in Residence’ for Off the Grid.

Based out of Auckland, New Zealand, Misery’s natural flare for art runs four generations deep. Known more for her character based works that are fun and magical but sprinkled with a touch of dark humor, her first outdoor works were graffiti-based, whereby her name Misery, was gifted to her by Askew One in 1997. Misery’s growth of her characters and worlds, which all live in ‘Miseryland’, strongly influenced by both her personal Asian and Pacific art experiences, has made her an individual strong-hold amongst her loyal and forever growing followers. Both known locally and internationally, she is one of the Pacific regions most well-known female urban contemporary artists to date.
