Alistair Fowler (he/him) is an award-winning artist based across Melbourne Naarm and the Daylesford Macedon Ranges region, on Wurundjeri and Dja Dja Wurrung Country, respectfully. Inspired by the natural world, his work explores the fragility and patchwork nature of the human condition, evoking familiarity with a sense of play.

Working across ceramics, drawing, painting, and woodwork, Alistair creates enigmatic and inventive ceramic creatures and distinctive glaze finishes, often incorporating upcycled and found materials. His practice centres on ceramic sculpture, reflecting his background in building and antique conservation and a meticulous attention to detail.

Alistair’s imagery has been used in professional learning and conference contexts that focus on emotion-centred and relational approaches in psychology and therapeutic practice, supporting dialogue around gender, sexuality, and queer lived experience. His work is referred to nationally and internationally and is held in private collections across Australia, Europe, and Asia, as well as in public and institutional collections including Maroondah City Council, St Kevin’s College Toorak, the Victorian State Library, and Commissioner Ball, the Victorian Commissioner for LGBTIQA+ Communities.
