about me

Natalia Chabadova, known by her alias Natasha Art, is a multidisciplinary visual artist whose work blends painting, well-being art, and sound healing. Born in Slovakia and now based in Newcastle, Australia, Natalia has lived across three continents—Europe, South America, and Australia—bringing a rich cultural influence to her artistic practice.

Natalia's artistic journey began early, with her first solo exhibition at the age of 19. Since then, she has exhibited in both solo and group shows, attended art residencies, and become a finalist in several prestigious art prizes. Her works are included in private collections across Europe, the USA, Australia, and South America.

Educated in marketing communication, Natalia's passion for art led her to pursue formal training in painting and drawing at both the Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava and Charles University in Prague. Beyond traditional art practice, she has dedicated herself to supporting younger generations through art and music education, leading workshops and sound healing therapies that guide individuals on their path to self-discovery, personal development, and harmony.

Natalia's work is renowned for its captivating, dreamlike use of color that evokes the ethereal beauty of life, inspiring a sense of wonder, hope, and harmony. Each piece invites the viewer into a world of positive energy, designed to uplift the spirit and create a deeper connection to one's inner peace. Through her art, Natalia offers more than just visual beauty—her pieces act as a source of inspiration and tranquility, making them the perfect addition to any space seeking balance and serenity. Whether for your home, office, or gallery, her work transforms environments and enhances well-being, creating a lasting impact.

Her global presence is reflected in her studios in Australia, Brazil, and her frequent travels between continents, which influence her creative process. She has painted murals, such as the one on Bondi Beach's Sea Wall, and contributed to notable publications, including illustrating a poetry book by Dana Janebova.

Whether through fine art, sound healing sessions, or public murals, Natasha Art is committed to using her creative voice to inspire and uplift, helping others to connect with their inner peace and embrace the beauty of life.
