YOUNG Aussie Taiya Bukovsky, is one of Australia’s most revered artists, responsible for creating hundreds of profile and highly prized murals across Australia.
Taiya has created huge mural installations for many iconic brands including Rydges and Telstra. She has also worked with St Marys Town Centre and many more shopping precints.
It all started for Taiya in 2015, inspired by her love of street art, particularly the iconic Bondi Sea Wall, where she applied to showcase her work. By 2016, she had secured her first paid commission and in 2019 she was approached to create Christmas window installations for St Mary’s Town Centre – a service that has grown significantly with over 100 windows painted across Sydney in 2024. As a result, her works, under the business name Awol Creations, have transformed a prolific number of spaces in both commercial and residential settings.
“This year, demand for our Christmas work for business’ shop fronts has skyrocketed. So many people have seen the wonderful Christmas window installations that we have created and the extraordinary magical presence that they create and everyone wants to be part of this growing tradition,” Taiya said.
“We are designing and painting an amazing array of Christmas window installations on a daily basis for businesses. They have become a hallmark of creativity and joy, transforming shop fronts across Sydney into festive, eye-catching displays. The success of these windows has not only boosted local businesses but also brought families and neighbours together to admire the streets of Sydney.
“Murals are more than art, they are a source of inspiration that uplifts people and sparks creativity. My goal is to transform spaces and inspire others to dream big, embrace and follow their passions – leading by example.
“The grandeur of murals transforms spaces into something extraordinary. They become a powerful presence.”
