OYSTER ART – BOOK – GALLERY – PUBLIC SPEAKER
Oyster Art is an evolving collection of complex macro-photographic images created from stacking multiple photos of small sections of oyster shells gathered from around the globe. No two oyster shells are alike, providing endless possibilities to inspire her work. Only a small percentage of shells prove to be “photogenic” enough to create an Oyster Art image. At the Studio/Gallery discover nature’s miniature worlds hidden inside an oyster shell displayed on cotton paper, canvas and acrylic. Look through the camera lens and learn from photographic artist Debbie Brady how these images come to life.
Each one is a unique piece of Island art with timeless depth and beauty enriching any space with an incredible story.
I am delighted to negotiate commissions as part of my portfolio. A special memory is created when a client’s oyster shell is the subject for their very own piece of Oyster Art. The inspiration shell is returned to the client for display. Size and proportions can also be customized.

Having seen Oyster Art, appreciation for this mollusc is heightened beyond its gastronomic appeal. Reactions often include: “I’ll never look at an oyster shell the same way again!
PUBLIC SPEAKER
It appears that Debbie is the only one in the world creating this type of work which inherently brings attention to the ecological and nutritional value of an oyster and helps raise the profile of the aquaculture industry.
As a public speaker Debbie draws from her artistic journey to deliver informative, engaging, interactive and humour-injected presentations and exhibits.
