Satta van Daal

When i was 9 I took a spot in the top three of the local bank’s children art comp’ for the third year in a row. At 13 I drew band logos onto my school bag and wanted to become a typographer, three years later I did a work experience with a sign writer. In 2003 I graduated with a Master in Design from Bauhaus University Weimar and shortly after moved from Germany to Melbourne where I was immediately infected by the local stencil fever. Since then I have exhibited my art around Australia, Europe, America and Asia and have been published in a number of international and national magazines, books etc.

Besides being a practising artist I have also poked my nose into the world of art and event management. In 2004 I initiated the Melbourne Stencil Festival and co-directed the highly successful event until 2007 (at that point it had become a touring show with festivals in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Perth and in several locations in regional Victoria). During that time I also organised numerous other street art exhibitions and educational programs around Victoria.

After a 2 year stint in the corporate graphic design world I went on to freelance in 2009. Art, Design and Family are filling my life now … what more would you want?!
