St Kilda Mural Artist My name is Maria-Rosa Szychowska, I am a french-canadian mural artist.

Subsequently, I completed a bachelor’s degree in graphic design at the University of […]
Currently lives and works in Melbourne, Australia.
Rory Lynch-Wells is a visual artist living and operating in South Yarra, Melbourne.
He studied a Bachelor of Business at Monash University with units completed at Aalto University, Finland.
Rory arrived on the Melbourne art scene in 2018 with large-scale public murals in the city's inner south-east under the name Lynch. Since then, he has collaborated with prominent clients like the AFL, Under Armour, and Dirk Nowitzki on various artistic projects.
He is best known for his collage-like style, in which abstract colours, patterns and references come together to form a larger image. This approach adds depth and meaning to subjects that might otherwise feel ordinary.
Favourite mural project types to work on
My favourite projects are large-scale murals created in teams. These projects showcase my strengths as a muralist, as they involve extensive planning, tools, equipment, and coordination with personnel — and I’m the one who brings it all together 😊. The final result is usually something that would be incredibly challenging to accomplish alone, leaving viewers in awe.
