Title: Designer for Age Care
Company: Tina Mitchell Age Care and Corporate Art
Location: Alderley, QLD, Australia
Before moving to Queensland in 1992, Tina Mitchell was a partner in a Sydney design studio. Since then, she has served in a variety of related positions, such as a corporate art consultant, sculptor, and art gallery owner in Brisbane. Ms. Mitchell found her passion, however, when she decided to pursue her current endeavor, quality art for the aged. The inspiration for this pursuit came from her mother, who was surrounded by illogical and unrecognizable art when she was in the hospital. Ms. Mitchell listened to her mother’s valid complaints, and realized the enormous lack of consideration that had gone into the choice of art. After her mother’s death, Ms. Mitchell made it her mission to improve the convalescent quality that art can provide.
