Below, we enter her inner landscape to discuss ritual, Irish Folklore, and embodied practice. Your process blends traditional painting techniques with what might be considered ‘unconventional’ materials in contemporary Western painting. How did materials like beeswax, wintergreen […]
Courtney McClelland navigates the complicated experience of existing within a body — the restlessness under the skin, the poetics of sensation. Familiar in its form yet multifarious in its translations, the body is a repository of histories, desires, intimacies, and vulnerabilities that articulate our corporeal being. Sometimes celebratory, sometimes escapist, McClelland’s figures reveal their connective […]
With equal measure of fascination and concern, William Versace began ‘Future Unearthed’ with his own creations of plastiglomerates. Known colloquially as ‘plastic gems’, these naturally fused anthropogenic rocks are made from a mixture of natural debris and plastic, and are found embedded in the earth’s surface. As a physical marker of human impact on the […]

ART PRIZE WIN.
We were delighted to see Eugenie Kawabata awarded the Honourable Mention Prize for Sculpture at the inaugural 2026 @paddingtonartprize Paddo Sculpture Prize last week.
Her incredible artwork, ‘Botanica Exotica: Takayna #5’, rightfully walked away with the $3,000 prize. Part of a series inspired by the extraordinary ecosystem of northwest Tasmania`s Takayna region, the sculpture echoes the forms of fungi, lichen, mosses and other plant life, using discarded textiles that are dyed, stitched and fused together in resin.
The Paddo Sculpture Prize exhibition is on view until 25 October at NCJWA Hall, Level 1, 111 Queen Street, Woollahra. Entry via Dorhauer Lane.

STOCKROOM SPOTLIGHT.
Eugenie Kawabata`s sculptural works draw inspiration from the protists, fungi, lichen, mosses, and plant life of the Takayna region in western Tasmania — one of the world’s last surviving Gondwana rainforests — presenting imagined entities that embody the spirit of this ancient ecosystem and the dense networks of life beneath its canopy.
Textile waste is built into sculptural forms that feel both organic and otherworldly; through stitching, dyeing, painting, and resin application, she creates objects that appear as relics from another civilisation or specimens unearthed from the forest floor, oscillating between design object and sculptural artefact.
Featured Artwork: `Botanica Exotica: Takayna #13`, 2025, fabric, resin, acrylic paint, dyes, composition foil gold leaf, mixed media, 79 × 37 × 37 cm
