Artist Statement:
Generally my work is nature
based, I am driven to express
my view as a suburban
householder concerned about
our natural environment.
Reality is in-fact, that we
like our consumer products and
as home-owners we selectively
forget about our collective
impact. Sadly this is not
going to change. In my work I
ask myself, how can we embrace
a unison between our consumer
desires and maintain our
values in the protection of
our native environment?

Your Personal Biography Dina Goebel has been an art practioner since high school. Predominantly self-taught, Dina has attended formal workshops in ceramics, sculpture, stone masonry and mosaic. This has been complimented with further studies in Interior Design and part-time studies in a Diploma of Fine Art at Southbank TAFE.

Artist Statement:
Generally my work is nature based, I am driven to express my view as a suburban householder concerned about our natural environment. Reality is in-fact, that we like our consumer products and as home-owners we selectively forget about our collective impact. Sadly this is not going to change. In my work I ask myself, how can we embrace a unison between our consumer desires and maintain our values in the protection of our native environment?

Dina first started exhibiting her paintings while in high school and gradually moved to home furnishings and sculptural forms after her children were born. In 1997 along with her partner Clint, Dina established a functional art business in the Redlands where they created their unusual Fantasy Dreams furnishing. Their stunning bedhead designs have been exported around the world and are custom designed for clients from all backgrounds.

In 2002, after corporate life, Dina established the ArTTable which offers the tuition and supply of art & craft materials throughout Australia through a direct selling system. Passionate about art and craft, Dina dreamed of giving other women an opportunity to do what they love by taking creativity to the people.

Today Dina continues to develop her sculptural murals throughout Australia and most of Dina’s artwork has been private commissions from individuals seeking a unique and decorative approach for their homes.
