Mia Lovelock

Mia Lovelock is an interdisciplinary artist whose work merges music, visual art, and fashion, inspired by her upbringing in Arnhem Land and Papua New Guinea and her Yuin and Kulin Nation heritage. Her Alt-Country, Folk, and Pop-infused sound has gained national recognition with features on Triple J, major community radio stations, and placements on Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music curated playlists. Her single Bring A Better Day has surpassed 370,000 Spotify streams, and she was the cover artist for Spotify’s Original Storytellers and Big Ancestor Energy playlists. She was also recently named a finalist for the 2026 APRA Professional Development Awards (PDAs).

​

In 2025, Mia was selected for the national compilation First Sounds Volume 12, while her Feathers EP reached #3 on the AMRAP Metro Radio Charts, reflecting her growing connection with audiences across the country.

​

As a visual artist, Mia won the Aboriginal Scholarship Award at the Mil-Pra AECG Art Prize (Liverpool Powerhouse) and will present a new body of work at their 2026 exhibition. Her notable works include Deadly Doors, a permanent installation at The EORA Centre in Redfern, with previous exhibitions at Parliament House Sydney and during NAIDOC Week at The Downing Centre.

​

During her Artist in Residence at the Red Rattler’s Future Communities Program, Mia developed an innovative performance fusing live music, painting, and fashion — a practice she has since showcased at a range of performances, including the Sydney Fringe Festival, Parramatta Lanes Festival and Sunset Sessions Cockatoo Island. 

​

Her wearable art, hand-painted on recycled fabrics, have been showcased at the Sydney Wearable Art Gala at the Enmore Theatre and featured internationally in publications such as Elegant Magazine and Prolific.

​

Through her work, Mia celebrates sustainability, cultural storytelling, and the strength of First Nations women in the arts.
