Tokyo Disneyland Parade 2018 Last Year is part of the series inspired by Scibilia's travels to Japan. The abstracted, interpretation in technicolour marker is full of movement and fearless personality.

Rebecca Scibilia is a Melbourne-based abstract artist who utilises a variety of media in her small and large scale works on paper and canvas. She sources her imagery from a range of popular culture items such as DVD covers and celebrity magazines and, more recently, she has drawn inspiration from her experiences travelling Japan. Her artworks, created in bold markers or acrylic paint in a lurid colour palette, occasionally also include humorous and meaningful phrases that she seamlessly weaves into the work. Scibilia has been a regular studio artist at Arts Project Australia since 1999 and had her first solo exhibition in 2014, then a second in Sydney at Suite 7a in 2019, and a third Japan and Mash appearing virtually in 2020. She has exhibited in numerous group shows including at Project Ability Gallery, Glasgow; Melbourne Art Fair and Neon Parc, Melbourne. Her work is held in the Leeuwin Estate Collection in Western Australia as well as corporate and private collections.
