Luna Gui is a multidisciplinary artist based in Sydney, Australia, working at the intersection of painting, object-making, and installation. Influenced by post-minimalist and formalist traditions, her practice investigates spatial perception through constructed forms and reduced visual language.
Her recent work focuses on painting as object—composed of precise geometries, subtle tonal shifts, and sculptural surfaces that extend into real space. Line, shape, and edge function as spatial events: moments of tension, transition, and architectural rhythm.
Often responding directly to site, Luna’s installations explore the relationship between form and environment, prompting shifts in how we encounter and read space. Her practice is process-driven and iterative, shaped by acts of building, observing, and adjusting—where each work emerges from and opens into a continuum of inquiry.
Luna received the John Olsen Prize for Drawing (Highly Commended) in 2022. She completed a Bachelor of Fine Art at the National Art School in 2023, and is currently pursuing a Master of Fine Art while actively exhibiting in collaborative and solo contexts.
