Brolga’s style of art is definitely eye-catching and has already caught the attention of famous brands such as Nike, Apple, Lego, YouTube Kids, and Jaguar.So, to learn more about the artist, we asked Brolga to share about his artistic journey. He wrote: “When I was a kid growing up in Australia, I always wanted to be a musician or visual artist when I grew up, but it was more of a far-off dream rather than something that could actually happen for me. It took a backpacking trip to New York in my mid-twenties to finally try some casual illustration classes. They felt so natural that from there, I started to connect the dots to finally push the dream towards a reality.”

Brooklyn has a vibrant and diverse artistic community. We asked how living in this creative hub influenced the artist’s work.“I doubt that I ever would have become an artist if I hadn’t moved to Brooklyn. As I mentioned earlier, it’s where my journey began to become an actual artist, and it’s there that I committed fully to it.The street art movement was in full swing at that time (around 2015). That movement inspired me to put up artwork on the street anonymously, and the reason why I began calling myself Brolga. I liked the fact that I could work anonymously under a pseudonym and be released from any direct judgment of the artwork. It felt like total freedom. I used to make one-off life-sized characters that I would wheat-paste around Brooklyn.From there, I began painting murals and also started working within illustration,” explained Brolga.
