Mia Lazarus is a Sydney-based abstract painter whose practice is driven by material experimentation and intuitive process, allowing paint to behave as a living element, poured, layered, reworked, and transformed over time.
Drawing influence from natural reactions and surface chemistry, Lazarus explores the tension between control and chance, creating works that evoke growth, erosion, and atmosphere without direct representation.
Through bold colour, translucent veils, and tactile mark making, her paintings invite slow looking, offering immersive spaces where the surface becomes a site of material dialogue and transformation.
Mia is a graduate of the National Art School.

“A circular centre sits at the core of each canvas, pulsing like an opening, a presence that invites you in. Materials react, interchange, and connect, the dialogue within the surface reflects the otherworldly chemical processes that surround us. Each painting begins beyond my control. Pours form the initial layer, mixing, merging, and reacting in ways that cannot be replicated. From there, the work is shaped by touch, bold marks, texture, and gesture, building a surface that asks the viewer to lean in and stay longer. “
Mia Lazarus, 2026
