MITCHELL CHEESMAN | A Sip From Stained Glass
Discover an expansive showcase of original artworks by emerging and established artists, spanning Australia and beyond.
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 […]
Personal memory, historical knowledge, and ways of remembering take form in André de Vanny’s latest body of work, negotiating between the weight of the past and the instability of the present.

INTERIOR INSPIRATION.
Who wouldn`t want to spend their weekend relaxing under this soaring ceiling? The contrast of dark, timber features and the copper tones of André de Vanny`s `Siena` painting grounds this cavernous room, creating a space that is both elevated and cozy, just begging to be lounged in for days on end.

We`re excited to see Alexander &CO.`s beautiful new project, Stone Manor House, in @vogueliving this month, featuring works by Llewellyn Skye and William Versace.
The 1883-built heritage-listed estate in Bronte is a masterclass in restoring and reimagining, honouring the history of the building (it was once a hospital) while embracing the beautiful chaos of modern family life.
Stone Manor House is built on Gadigal land.

ART PRIZE ANNOUNCEMENT.
We are delighted to congratulate Eugenie Kawabata on her inclusion in the 2026 @paddingtonartprize Paddo Sculpture Prize.
This is the first year the prize has extended beyond painting, continuing the exploration and depiction of the Australian landscape through sculpture and ceramics.
‘Botanica Exotica: Takayna #5’ is part of a body of work Kawabata imagined while on an artist retreat in the Takayna region of northwest Tasmania, taking inspiration from the protists, fungi, lichen, mosses and plant life of this ancient ecosystem to creates objects that appear as relics from another civilisation or specimens unearthed from the forest floor, oscillating between design object and sculptural artefact.
The Paddo Sculpture Prize exhibition will be on view Oct 15 - Oct 25, Level 1, 111 Queen St, Woollahra.
Explore more of Eugenie Kawabata’s extraordinary fabric and resin sculptures via the link in bio.

In `Palazzo Chupi`, the artist`s experiences, both real and embellished, are overlapped in a cornucopia of colour and shapes, arranged not to depict a scene but to elicit a feeling. A hat worn by Grace Jones exists in the living room of an infamous New York director, where fragments of discovery, travel and memory are pieced together into a second life.
Mitchell Cheesman`s latest body of work, `A Sip From Stained Glass`, is on view at the Curatorial+Co. Woolloomooloo gallery until 26 September.
