Ces McCully (b. 1982) is an artist from Melbourne, Australia, now based in the south of France. Her work moves between text-based pieces and abstract paintings that are characterised by bold forms and highly balanced compositions, often influenced by textiles. She has recently shown in Denmark, Germany and Australia and will have two solo exhibitions in Australia in 2021.
