Scott Marr
Nature based art made by burning and painting with natural colors
collected from the Australian bush. Scott powders local colored stones
in a coffee grinder to form a palette of ochres. He dry-fries ochre
from local riverbeds and discovered a unique burnt umber.
Scott boils barks, leaves and mosses to leach organic dyes. He crushes
native berries to produce an array of watery washes and grinds and
boils sap to form thick syrups and diluted tints. In the kitchen he
makes beetroot juice and coffee washes for his works on paper. He does
it all from soup to nuts...*

Born in 1976 in St Leonards, Sydney, Australia,
Scott Marr uses natural pigments collected from the bush and farmlands
including ochres, bark, charcoal, sap, flowers, berries, and the medium
of fire to burn drawings (pyrography) onto paper and wood. Based on a
love for drawing, Marr’s artwork looks into the world of what he calls
“bio metamorphics” symbiosis, energy, or the “alchemy of nature".
