Auckland-based illustrator and muralist Rebecca ter Borg (yes, the ‘t’ is lower case) makes organic loopy shapes that capture the intertwining relationship between the natural world and human constructs. Taking inspiration from botanicals, overgrown gardens and trippy illustrated vintage picture books, Rebecca gives reality a twist and spreads some magic through everyday objects and scenes.

Rebecca illustrated portraits of five significant women for New Zealand’s version of the Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls series, and is most known for her work creating beer labels featuring flowing botanical scenes in soft pastel palettes for local NZ brewery Garage Project and their range of quirky craft beers, challenging the typical ‘masculine’ branding of traditional beer labelling.

This year I can't wait to...
Try the excellent print-making facilities at my new university teaching job to create some yummy IRL art pieces.
As a kid I loved the draw...
Witches, messy rooms and beauty contests.
My superpower is...
Noticing the details and appreciating the tiny over-looked things.
My dream project would be...
Something really big and fantastical that transforms a drab space into a whole new world.
My process is a mixture of...
Doodling, pencil sketches, ink drawings, procreate and photoshop.
A creative area I'd like to explore more is...
Mixing illustration with photography. I started off doing a lot of collage and I think it's making a comeback!
