Merindah Funnell

Merindah Funnell is a young, proud Tubba-Gah woman from the Wiradjuri Nation in Dubbo, Australia, and identifies as an Aboriginal Australian artist. She paints and educates about her Aboriginal identity through creative learning. Her unique style of painting lends itself to bold street art murals, distinctive fine art, and provocative illustrations. Through striking colours and eye-catching design, Merindah acknowledges the Country and land and celebrates First Nations culture.
Merindah’s art is often interactive and used as a point of conversation and education. In creating public artwork, Merindah aims to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in feeling safer and welcome into spaces and places, as well as help non-Indigenous people feel like they can connect with First Nations culture.
