Welcome to Surreal by Studio Sharkie, where portraiture moves beyond the physical and into the imagined. I’m Kira Sharkie, a Melbourne-based surreal artist creating bespoke, dream-like artworks that blend photography and digital composition into poetic visual narratives.
Working with both people and animals, I create deeply personal artworks shaped by emotion, atmosphere, and an intuitive sense of storytelling.
Each piece is carefully and deliberately constructed, drawing together elements of reality and imagination to form immersive surreal scenes that exist beyond the physical world. The resulting work inhabits the space between truth and dream — familiar yet transformed, grounded yet otherworldly.
Created as lasting pieces of art, these works are intended to be lived with, felt, and quietly returned to over time, revealing new layers of meaning with each encounter.
