Bradley Kickett is a local Noongar artist who grew up in Perth. He descended from the Kickett clan in York, Western Australia, and began painting in 2007. Bradley’s abstract style of art depicts paintings from an aerial view, which are illustrated in a fluid style that he has developed throughout the years. Interwoven with history, Bradley’s inspiration comes from the stories that are shared and passed down to him by his family and elders.
