Sarah Beetson is a British-born artist and fashion illustrator based in Australia.

She layers spray paint, tissue, collage and drawing by hand on paper, wood, photographs and fabric. Vivid colour, intricate patterns and materials that clash and harmonise form the distinctive visual language of Sarah Beetson’s work.

ZionJ

Painting wounds, acceptance and blossoming

A Korean artist depicting an individual’s wounds, acceptance and blossoming through acrylic brushstrokes and ink lines.

ZionJ sees unplanned brushstrokes as the unpredictable events and traces that life leaves behind. Rather than erasing or concealing them, he draws figures over them in ink, creating beings who learn to live as themselves again.

2018–2026

Global brand collaborations

From 2018 to 2026, he worked on live painting and art collaborations with brands including Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Fendi, Burberry, Ferragamo, Dolce & Gabbana, Chanel Beauty and Jimmy Choo.

ZionJ reinterprets the pair’s emotional changes in episodes 1, 5 and 9 as a series of three paintings. From strangers to two people who embrace each other through understanding and comfort, the series captures the drama’s journey of healing and growth.
