Saltwater Dreamtime
By Zachary Bennett-Brook
Hi, I’m Zachary Bennett-Brook an award-winning artist, born in Wollongong Australia in 1990. Being a proud Indigenous man of Torres Strait Islander heritage growing up in Wollongong (Dharawal Country), I have always been surrounded by the water and have always been involved with water-based activities. Being Torres Strait Islander, water has always played a vital role throughout my life. The ocean is ingrained within my cultural heritage and is often represented throughout many of my artworks and designs.
In high school, I discovered my passion to paint personal stories within my artworks and combine both my surf and Indigenous cultures together in a modern manner. After exploring different mediums, I gained the confidence to develop my individual style and flair. My art has commonly been called unique and often an eye-catching perspective of contemporary art blended with surf culture, for all to enjoy.
