KATE BANAZI | You Get Me
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. Both linear and cyclical, Mantle unfolds as a repository of memory, storytelling, and iconography through which de Vanny explores how we recall and make […]

STOCKROOM SPOTLIGHT.
Belinda Street paints not only what she sees, but what she feels: the shimmer of heat, the memory of footsteps, the echo of presence that lingers long after we pass.
The artist’s brushstrokes move like weather – bold, searching, alive – translating sensation into colour and rhythm. Each gesture speaks of connection and transience, of how place imprints itself upon us.
Featured Artwork: `Holding the Warmth`, 2025, acrylic on board, 51 × 40 cm

IN THE STUDIO.
For Kate Banazi, everything begins with the body. Not only is it the catalyst, but it`s the process, each pull of the silk screen or spray of the paint gun imbues the work with a chaos that mirrors inhabiting the body itself.
`You Get Me`, her latest body of work, explores the figure through distorted lines, limbs, openings, and edges that shift, repeat, and find meanings.
Join us this Wednesday 30 September 5.30-8pm, for the opening reception of Kate Banazi`s `You Get Me`, on view at the Woolloomooloo gallery 30 September - 17 October.

LAST DAYS.
Mitchell Cheesman’s paintings vibrate with an energy and exuberance that defy their classification as still lifes. Thickly applied in impasto oil, their rich, glossy surfaces are almost edible, slathered onto the canvas with the same playful abandon as the compositions themselves.
You can still enjoy these luscious paintings in the Woolloomooloo gallery until Saturday, 26 September.
The exhibition catalogue for `A Sip From Stained Glass` is also available online by following the link in bio.

COMING SOON.
Curatorial+Co. is delighted to present the latest body of work by Kate Banazi, `You Get Me`, in our Woolloomooloo gallery from 30 September – 17 October.
JOIN US for the opening celebration on Wednesday 30 September 5:30–8pm.
Kate Banazi’s practice is anchored in the human body — drawn from life, then pulled apart into fragments of line, limb, and edge that shift, repeat, and resist fixed meaning. The body moves through sketch, computer, photograph, screen, and print, each layer adding distortion.

INTERIOR AS SELF-PORTRAIT.
Artists have long used the interior as more than a backdrop. From Matisse and David Hockney to Margaret Olley and Brett Whiteley, the rooms they paint become akin to self-portraits, where objects, colours and details evoke a deeply personal narrative.
Mitchell Cheesman picks up this tradition in his own distinctive way, filling his interiors with the objects of his world, each bar stool or tchotchke embodying an experience or memory. The result is a playful, idiosyncratic take on the interior, where familiar things are rearranged into forms not seen before.
