Kaz Shirley is an abstract artist from Ocean Grove, working in her home studio with husband Baz, also an artist.
Kaz has a very strong involvement in the local Arts community. She was a founding member of the Barwon Heads Arts Council and has held roles as Treasurer, Vice President and recently President. Kaz was also the instigator and coordinator of the local Bellarine Arts Trail that has become a very successful and well loved local creative event.
Kaz has been a previous exhibitor at several local galleries and recipient of the Contemporary Art Prize at Studio 54. Balance in 2019 was Kaz’s first time at The Hive with a Solo Exhibition. In her colourful and layered style, Kaz Shirley has focussed on achieving BALANCE in this exhibition, and her artwork reflects an abstract view of how some things are in balance, appear in balance or are not in balance at all.
Kazs’ work is sometimes colourful, sometimes playful and always open to interpretation.
We are delighted to see her return in January 2026 with her second exhibition ‘Dreaming in Colour’ See the Past Exhibition tab for all the details.
