ABOUT ME

 ​I am Chantal KwastGreff and I am an art creator 
I was born in a part of France whose history has been troubled by wars, ​in a torn, multicultural family. I lived and worked in France for a number of years before moving to New Caledonia for work. I have now settled in Australia, and enjoy every single minute of my life as a new Australian in Townsville. My years as a Senior Lecturer and Associate Professor are behind me: I enjoyed teaching Australian Literature and Art to millions (?) of students in France, New Caledonia, and Australia. Now I enjoy being able to paint full time, all the time, and to learn more and more about art.

this is what ​i did

PLACE, IDENTITY, BELONGING​

​my stories are essentially about being
- being born and alive and belonging -
these are the issues I am looking at, and - what else???  
​I love the tropics ❣️ and I love crocodiles ☺️

my VOICE and my STORY​
