REMY FAINT
Artspace

Congratulations to Remy Faint who has been invited to join the Artspace Studio residency program.

The Studio Program continues to offer artists the space to research and produce new works without constraint in an open and critically-engaged environment. Selected through a national open call, these artists form the first cohort within Artspace’s renewed two-year, rent-free residency model, marking a major new chapter in the organisation’s long-standing commitment to supporting artists with time, space and institutional support at pivotal moments in their practice.
Working across sculpture, installation, painting, video, performance and expanded interdisciplinary practice, the new cohort reflects the breadth and complexity of contemporary artistic practice today.

PAUL DAVIES
'Layers in Motion'
Until 13 June, 2026

'Layers in Motion' by Paul Davies brings together an immersive installation, a new series of paintings, and dynamic bronze sculptures. The exhibition offers a compelling articulation of Davies’ engagement with process, material, and the spatial conditions of image making.

In Layers in Motion, Davies advances a practice that is both materially rigorous and conceptually expansive. Through a refined interplay of construction and erasure, his works occupy a liminal terrain between architecture and abstraction, memory and materiality.

Davies's work has been acquired by The J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles, the University of California Irvine, Institute and Museum of California Art, Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, Palm Springs Art Museum, Crocker Art Museum, MAK Center for Art and Architecture and the Laguna Art Museum. In 2016 he completed a residency at the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture Phoenix and work from this is now held in the permanent collection at the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art and McClelland Sculpture Park + Gallery. In 2013 he was awarded a residency at the Cite Internationale des Arts, Paris by the Art Gallery of New South Wales. Davies was featured with Luc Tuymans and Peter Doig in the essay 'Limbo Architecture – Painters of Modernism' by Aaron Betsky, director of the Cincinnati Art Museum (2006–14), for the May 2014 edition of Architecture Review.

THUNDERHEAD is an immersive audiovisual performance by artist and musician Tina Havelock Stevens (drums) and long-time collaborator Liberty (guitar) with an improvised performance that channels the tremendous beauty and chaos of a supercell storm.

Tina Havelock Stevens' practice moves fluidly between sound, image, and performance, exploring the nuanced intersections of memory and perception. Her multidisciplinary, site-responsive works investigate the entwined relationship between sound and environment, creating encounters that are both intellectually resonant and physically immersive.

Paul Davies
Layers in Motion

The entrance to the exhibition, Layers in Motion is marked by a stunning site-specific wall installation by Paul Davies.
Drawing upon the layered visual language that defines his painting practice, Davies has created an immersive installation composed of a series of cyanotype prints. Rich in texture, movement and depth, the work extends the artist’s exploration of memory, landscape and materiality beyond the canvas, transforming the architectural space into a immersive environment. Through the distinctive blue tonalities and textured surfaces of the cyanotype process, the installation evokes both the elemental forces of nature and the traces of human presence.

Grace Lillian Lee
Australian Fashion Week 2026

A huge Congratulations to Grace Lillian Lee who last week presented, 'Reclamation', an incredibly powerful First Nations-led runway show in Sydney May 10th. Grace Lillian Lee's collection, The Guardians, was showcased alongside six designers and 24 Indigenous models in the First Nations Fashion + Design (FNFD). This collection was collaboratively presented with costume works created by The Australian Ballet and Bangarra Dance Theatre.

Reclamation positions itself as both a celebration and a bold assertion of sovereignty, aiming to reshape the Australian fashion industry on First Nations terms. It is the first step in a three-year strategy to build a permanent, independant fashion platform, owned and led by First Nations people, designed to outlast the systems is challenges.

PARIS

Janet Laurence
Once Were Forests

Janet Laurence's stunning exhibition at CASSANDRA BIRD, Paris supported by ZIMMERMANN continues until 11 July, 2026

Laurence’s artwork engages with ice, forest, and water as carriers of time, memory, and life, tracing threads between ancient ecologies, the present state of nature, and possible future ecologies. Within the exhibition, forest and ice are inseparable: one preserves, the other transforms; one remembers, the other lives. Together, they form a network of relationships, a living archive of entangled life systems spanning leaves, insects, branches, animals, pollen, people, seeds, soils, and fungi, each a record within a larger cosmos, held in the past and rediscovered in the present.
