Zachary Bennett-Brook paints traditional Indigenous art on surfboards.
Zachary Bennett-Brook's roots are in the Torres Strait Islands. The ocean has always been central to his way of life and it's this heritage coupled with a love of surfing that Bennett-Brook credits with being the secret to his success.
"I had this old surfboard laying around and thought it would make a great canvas which would allow me to connect my surfing culture with my Indigenous culture, and the rest is history," Bennett-Brook told surfing magazine Surfd.
"I don’t know if I would call myself an artist, I guess I sort of am, haha. I have always been drawing, painting and have been creative for as long as I can remember so I guess it all started from a young age. As I have become older I have refined and changed my art style to what it is now"
