Greg Wilson Gallery

His 4 year recovery was plagued by depression and physical challenges, these experiences saw the artist seek refuge in art as a means to express, manage and steer through the darkness. These experiences have been a source of creativity and inspiration, being a subject widely explored through various mediums from painting through to sculpture and mixed medium. 

Greg Wilson’s inspirational journey has been well documented throughout the media having appeared on numerous prime time television shows, Radio and major publications.
