CREATURE CREATURE is an artist duo based in Melbourne, Australia, comprising of Chanel Tang and Ambrose Rehorek. They have a collaborative art practice that spans across exhibiting art, murals, street art, design, and illustration.

Their combined style is a convergence of Asian aesthetics and iconography with a Western perspective, resulting in works brimming with contrast and fluidity. The work embodies the concept of duality and the sum of a whole, emphasising messages of togetherness, states of balance, yin and yang.

Through their partnership, they aim to preserve diversity and create expressions that are complex, layered, and interconnected, celebrating the beauty of unity.

Some of their clients include: Adidas, AS Colour, Cotton On, The New Yorker, National Gallery of Victoria, John Holland construction, Swinburne University, AUS Post, Ocellus studios, Melbourne Food and Wine festival, Single O coffee, MAVA Collective, Strawberry Fields music festival, City of Melbourne, Whitehorse City Council, City of Stonnington, City of Maribyrnong, City of Yarra, City of Hurstville, Wyndham City Council, City of Port Phillip, Yorke Peninsula Council, Melbourne Water, SA Water, Wagga City Council.

ARTIST STATEMENT

Auspicious Delicious is a new exhibition by artist duo Creature Creature, offering up delectable treats that entice with flavours of prosperity and good fortune. It features animals, fruit and flowers that serve as omens of abundance, luck and well-being.

The work is inspired by customs, traditions, folklore and iconography that repeat over time building superstition and symbols of joy.

Paintings and little sculptures emphasise the organic and natural, in shapes, colour and form, and explore a harmony of tastes: sour, bitter and oh so sweet.
