About the artist
Dina Goebel is an Australian mixed-media sculptural artist whose work examines the contradiction between how we speak about conservation and how we live as consumers.
Using reclaimed materials, natural specimens, and hybrid forms, she creates works that sit between preservation and loss — asking what we choose to protect, and what we allow to disappear.

Welcome to That Creative Feeling — the studio practice of sculptural artist Dina Goebel.
My work is shaped by a lifelong fascination with natural history, preservation, and the objects we assign meaning to. I work with reclaimed materials, found forms, and traditional techniques to create sculptures that sit between beauty and discomfort.
This site brings together my exhibition work, studio experiments, and a selection of collectable pieces created alongside my broader practice.
