There is an essential alchemy to the way Emily Ebbs creates – foraging, boiling, preparing, mixing, and dyeing. 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 […]

IN THE PRESS.
Old soul indeed! We absolutely love the way @_studiogemma_ leaned into a darker palette in this Paddington terrace, as seen in the November issue of @houseandgarden magazine.
It`s fitting that both of our featured artists, André de Vanny and Katarina Wells, utilise time so distinctively in their respective processes, building up layers of life and capturing the ephemeral to create pieces that imbue a sense of history, or perhaps, soul.

Sea, salt, and rain leave their mark on William Versace’s latest series of scagliola works, framed in seaweed-cast pewter.
Scagliola, from the Italian ‘scaglia’, meaning a chip or flake, imitates marble with plaster, rabbit skin glue, and pigment. It is a distinct craft that finds its origins in Italy – just as Versace does.
Versace cedes control to process. Pigments drawn from sea life and ochre, sifted by hand in a process rooted in his Calabrian heritage. The surfaces read as geological cross-sections – strata that hold traces of time and place.

Featured work: ‘The Weight of the Thaw’, 2026, plaster, raw clay, handmade and powdered pigments, ink, rabbit skin glue, resin, pewter, 36 × 32 × 4 cm

ON SHOW NOW.
There is a landscape within the surface of Katarina Wells` ceramic vessels. Layers of colour, irregular markings, and weathered finishes evoke the natural processes of accumulation and erosion.
Drawing inspiration from the physical traces left by nature, from compressed sediment and decaying leaves to animal tracks fading in the sand, Wells uses clay to capture moments of change and transformation.
Through multiple glaze firings, she builds unpredictable texture, creating surfaces that appear shaped by the elements and marked by the passage of time.
Katarina Wells` exhibition `Marks, Tracks, and Traces` is on view at the Woolloomooloo gallery until 7 November. To explore the exhibition artworks, follow the link in bio.
Featured Artworks:
1. `Tracks`, 2026, mid-fire clay, oxide, glaze, 27 × 32 × 32 cm
2. `Fossil Rock`, 2026, mid-fire clay, slips, oxides, glaze, 30 × 30 × 30 cm
3. `Between Earth and Sky`, 2026, mid-fire clay, slips, oxides, glaze, 39 × 38 × 38 cm

There is an essential alchemy to the way Emily Ebbs creates – foraging, boiling, preparing, mixing, and dyeing.
Her process-based practice explores stain as both material and metaphor, evoking the emotional residue of trauma through fluid painting techniques.
Working primarily on raw canvas, Ebbs allows pigment to seep into the weave of the fabric, creating permeated surfaces that echo the way trauma can imprint itself on the body.
Drawn to the idea of the stain: something marked, discoloured, and difficult to remove, her work reflects on the lingering presence of emotional and psychological experience.
