Feeling very seen and validated to have been shortlisted for this year’s Ellen José Art Award for Young Women!

Big congratulations to @clarejaquevasquez_artist for her monumentally captivating winning painting ‘Silent weapons for quiet conflicts’ 2025 🫶 and to my fellow finalists!! @meimeihodgkinson @jacquismelltron @amalialindo @jenna.mlee ❤️

The interrelated considerations and inquiries on what it means to be a young person in this world runs through each artists work. I felt really inspired and emotional when reading the catalogue essay. Lol. I’m really very privileged to be in this year’s shortlisting and to have the opportunity to make new and challenging work. If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound? I’m so grateful to show my work and amongst such outstanding company! Thanks @ellenjose_memorialfoundation and @baysidegallery Xx

This is just a quick bit about the new work I made..

‘Wallpaper endures quietly in the background of daily life; wrapping paper exists only for the moment before it is torn away. In Barrier or Breakthrough, the act of tearing gestures toward truth yet what is revealed is only another layer of pattern. The presents remain intact. Holding the viewer at the threshold of disruption. Placed together, these works speak to the double-edged nature of transformation. 

This tension between concealment and revelation, permanence and transience, anticipation and aftermath, invites reconsideration of everyday surfaces and the hidden meanings they carry. Painting slows time, elevating fragile and overlooked surfaces into sites of reflection and growth.’

This wonderful exhibition curated by Joanna Bosse and Nicole Salvo will be on view until 14th December 2025 💕

‘In my work, the recurring motif of patterned fabrics emanates from my everyday life. My interest in the ornament and the domestic at first began in recognising my own relationship to it. Fabric instils a rich history in our social politics, fashion, and painting history, all of which feed back into my work. Fabrics over time have revealed to me more than initially meets the eye. They have become symbolic of my endless inquiry into the mundane yet dynamic moments of the everyday.
 
‘Routines’, put simply, is a painting about the habitual patterns in life. A simple composition of horizontal stripes epitomises the central theme of the ‘stripe’ in many of my past works. ‘Flutter’ evokes sensations, like the batting of butterfly wings or the rapids of a heartbeat. ‘Flutter’ reveals a deep twist and scrunch in its left-hand side. Kind of like a cramp or a pinched nerve. A more theatrical composition than ‘Routine’, ‘Flutter’ embodies the need to relate to what is visually offered.’

‘Jeffery explores the complex cycle of promise and fulfilment that drives consumerism in her attempt to unravel how capitalism shapes our experiences, choices and values. Cleverly playing with the notion of ‘eye candy’, the works also draw parallels to the creation of art and its consumption.

The works embody a tension between the handmade and the machine made that is multi-layered: evoking ideas around art as a labour of love that is increasingly devalued and consumerism’s mirage of luxury (a fleeting high that leaves behind pollution, waste and a depletion of resources).

Unlike real gifts, her present paintings hold their secrets intact, and the viewer is forever suspended in the delight between expectation and revelation.’

‘Casey Jeffery’s new series of present- paintings – consider humanity’s overconsumption of goods, resources and energy, and increasing demand for more. As Jeffery notes, “excess is both suffocating and seductive.” In the age of e-commerce, emissions have increased exponentially through production, transportation, packaging and return shipping. But also, because of the energy, infrastructure, and inequality required to support it. While the burning of fossil fuels for energy production, including electricity and heat, is the largest industrial polluter contributing to global emissions, the fashion industry comes in second.

As noted in the Oxfam ‘Climate Equity: A Planet for the 99%’ (2023) report 16% of global carbon emissions are attributed to the world’s “richest people, corporations and countries.” This is equivalent to the carbon emissions produced by the poorest 66% of humanity (5 billion people), those seeing and experiencing the effects of industry-driven climate change the most. Packaged up beautifully in neat white boxes ready for consumption, Jeffery’s glossy gift paintings offer-up a delicately wrapped social commentary on consumer culture, and the profits that are seemingly driving planetary demise.’

Presented in the context of The Substation – a repurposed power station turned multi-artform space – In the air collectively draw focus to the vulnerability and wreckage inherent to the now.

Love of Labour, 2025
Oil and acrylic on pine
25cm x 20cm

‘In the air’ curated by Jess Clark is currently on view at The Substation until the 16th of August 🩷

‘This series of paintings takes the form of wrapped gifts. Seductively polished objects that evoke illusion and desire. While they appear celebratory, they satirically question how value is constructed and gratification is packaged and sold. Promising fulfillment whilst concealing the emotional, social and environmental costs of consumption. The work explores how consumer culture shapes identity and longing and how systems of inequality are upheld by the belief in material fulfillment. These paintings invite reflection on the labor of love in a world where love and craft are increasingly commodified.’

‘The planet is at breaking point, and even though this message is repeated year-after-year, the human-induced impact is seemingly increasing at an exponential rate and with growing complexity. Underpinned by an Indigenous knowledge framework that centres the interrelationship of life, materiality and place, In the air variously explores critical perspectives on energy and power production, consumption, and human impact. Featuring several new commissions alongside recent works, the exhibition equally draws focus to electrical currents and electro-magnetic waves circulating within the natural realm, in the earth, in the body, in the air, and beyond.’ - Dr. Jessica Clark, Curator

-

Public Program / 23 July 2025
Exhibiting artists Aidan Hartshorn, Casey Jeffery, Cassie Sullivan, Emily Parsons-Lord, Francis Carmody, Xanthe Dobbie, and curator Jessica Clark, will gather to collectively reflect upon the tensions between progress and preservation, consumption and collapse, and the role of creative practice in navigating the complex ecological and political climate of the present.

This is a free event, spaces are limited. RSVP @thesubstation via their website.
