What I did “The property’s native bushland had become wildly overgrown with noxious weeds,” says Mestrom. “Clearing it revealed pathways, ponds and gorgeous little cubby houses I didn’t know existed.”
Favourite room “My studio. I turned a three-car garage into a versatile workspace. As a single mum, having a flexible workspace that seamlessly integrates into our home is essential.”
The ‘hood “There are hundreds of kilometres of walking and running tracks, plus rivers and waterfalls, at our back door, ” says Mestrom.
Future plans “In addition to replanting endemic native species, I plan to develop the bush into a small sculpture park with site-specific outdoor works.”
Best advice “A home isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about creating a dynamic living experience,” says Mestrom. “I love the experience of living inside an ever-evolving art installation.”
Sanné Mestrom is represented by Sullivan + Stocking gallery in Sydney and Melbourne. Her next solo exhibition, Solar City, will be at the Melbourne gallery in August, 2024.
