Joel Moore, better known by his professional moniker Mulga, is a celebrated Australian street artist, illustrator, and muralist whose work has become a defining feature of the contemporary Australian urban landscape. Based in Sydney, Moore transitioned from a career in finance to pursue art full time in 2012, quickly gaining recognition for his unique aesthetic characterized by intricate line work and a vibrant, tropical color palette. His style often features anthropomorphic animals wearing sunglasses, bearded surfers, and idiosyncratic creatures that embody a playful, sun-drenched Australian spirit.

The artist is particularly renowned for his large scale public murals, which can be found adorning walls from Bondi Beach to international locations. His creative output extends beyond walls to include a wide range of commercial collaborations with global brands, as well as his own line of apparel and accessories. Moore often accompanies his visual creations with whimsical rhyming poems that provide backstories for his characters, adding a narrative depth to his bright compositions. This multidisciplinary approach has helped him build a recognizable brand that bridges the gap between high energy street art and commercial illustration. Throughout his career, Moore has maintained a commitment to making art accessible and joyful, frequently participating in community projects and live painting events. His ability to blend detailed textures with bold, graphic shapes ensures his work remains visually arresting, whether it is viewed on a massive scale in a city alleyway or on a small canvas in a local gallery. He continues to be a prolific figure in the Australian art scene as of 2026.
