Maddy O’Connor (b. 1999), also known by MOCOWORLDWIDE online, is an Australian artist working in Canberra/Ngambri
She has studied a Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at University of the Arts London: Central Saint Martins, and a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the National Art School.
Primarily working in the field of painting, her work explores themes of childhood, Catholicism, and femininity. In a deliberately naïve fashion, she uses recurring motifs of the Devil and stylised, simple self portraits in combination with text. O’Connor’s use of text looks to replace imagery with the written word, combining the conventions of painting with writing in a diaristic and often humorous way.
She is currently pursuing a Master of Art History and Curatorial Studies at the Australian National University.
