Elliot Guerrisi-Watson

My name is Elliot Guerrisi-Watson (Elbow) and I am a Sydney born painter and street artist, working across a range of mediums, through the means of sybolism, pareidolia and the hand, with a particular focus on mural and large-scale canvas works .

My work draws from history, philosophy and mythology, mediated through lived experience. Aiming to facilitate a point of contemplation and reciprocal relationship between the works, the viewer and their environment, fostering a sense of collective ownership of space and community empowerment to shape our shared future.
