Maddison Kitching

Maddison Kitching is an emerging artist based in Melbourne (Naarm) whose work investigates human relationships with the natural world. Kitching unpacks everyday symbols representing animals and plants seen in architecture, pop culture, science and literature using painting, collage and sculpture. By investigating these relationships and symbols, Kitching seeks to understand how human culture has been shaped throughout history by the natural world. His recent projects have reflected on: the legacy of species modification of the axolotl, the role of animal symbols in shaping the national psyche in Australia, and the use of live animals in political diplomacy.

Bridgette McNab

Bridgette McNab is a multidisciplinary artist based in the Central Highlands of Victoria. Her practice spans a range of subject matter that orbit a preoccupation with lifting the veil on perceived realities, both private and public. 

Perhaps best known for her strong use of colour and graphic style, McNab’s figurative works search for truth and wisdom through comprehending both the tangible and sensory world. 

Deeply curious about the idea of what is ‘real’, McNab excavates a wide variety of modern subject matter from hyperreality, performance, surveillance to spirituality. She states that by taking advantage of its slowness as a medium, painting can constitute a means of thinking about and reading images - a paramount activity in modern life.

Nikolaus Dolman

Nikolaus Dolman is an Australian artist based in Geelong, Victoria. Born in 1987, he holds a Bachelor of Fine Art specialising in Printmaking from Southern Cross University, Lismore NSW and a Master’s in Art Administration from the University of New South Wales Art & Design, Sydney. 

His multidisciplinary practice spans painting, printmaking, sculpture, and collage, with a focus on the transient nature of consumer culture, exploring themes of advertising, representation, repetition and production. "Through voyeuristic elements like windows and doors, Dolman constructs dystopian formalism, defined by bold colour contrasts, melting forms, and tactile intensity." 

Dolman has presented solo exhibitions including Monolithic Hairwig / Tinfoil Helmet (2021) at Fivewalls, Melbourne; Cardboard Paintings (2019) at Stacks Projects during the Sydney Contemporary Art Fair; and 1 Hour Tooth Whitening (2018) at DeliGrocery Project in New York City. His work is included in the Contemporary Collage Museum in Viborg, Denmark, as well as in private collections throughout Europe and America.

Jamie Edward

Jamie Edward blends his passions for science and design to create artwork that reflects our deep connection with the world around us. Originally from Melbourne (Naarm), he draws inspiration from his life in Tasmania, which has shaped his exploration of the natural and built environments, technology, human connection, and the significance of place. His work centres on the ways in which the sun, stars, moon, natural systems, and life cycles have influenced visual language and symbolism throughout history, seeking to explain our past and imagine our future. Edward produces artwork that is both unrestrained and thoughtful, offering a playful yet profound commentary on the human condition. Now based in lunawani / Bruny Island, Edward works as a visual artist, illustrator, designer, and mural painter. He holds a Bachelor of Science from ACU (2007) and a Bachelor of Communication Design from RMIT (2012).

Julian Hocking

He has exhibited widely, including exhibitions at Alaska Projects, Fort Delta, LON gallery, Spring 1883, George Patton Gallery and Long Division Gallery. He completed a Bachelor of Visual Art (Graphic Design) with Honours at La Trobe University (2012) and a Bachelor of Fine Art - Drawing and Print Media at Victorian College of the Arts (2015).

Sam Octigan

Australian-born artist Sam Octigan’s practice both revels in the pleasure of exploring the qualities of paint and pursuing the mastery of the craft. His energetic canvases express a fascination with form, texture and composition, while thematically exploring notions by culture, media, communication and representation. Living and working in Melbourne (Naarm), Octigan is driven by wanting to connect with the world around him and to express himself through his work. Exhibiting in traditional and non-traditional spaces, Octigan is always trying to produce what he describes as “the timeless and ephemeral ah-ha moment of feeling connected, seen and understood.”

Nanou Dupuis

Nanou Dupuis is a Belgian-born, Melbourne (Naarm) based artist. Her art practice surveys the interchangeable boundaries between the sculptural nature of painting, and the painterly aspect of sculpture. She creates limitless gestural abstraction through the seeping shadows that emerge from the deconstructed framing. This entices a site-responsive shift in the perception of the boundaries of her canvases.

Dupuis sculptural painting practice has developed over the years through studying at the Belgian Academy of Fine Arts and undertaking interior architectural Design at Saint Luc University in Belgium. Dupuis expanded her field of interest with a Master of Public Art from RMIT University in Melbourne. She has also undertaken international art residencies supported by the Australian Council for the Arts and been regularly shortlisted for awards in Australia and internationally.

Sean McDowell

Sean McDowell is an emerging, German-born artist based in Melbourne (Naarm). Working across painting, drawing and exhibition-making, McDowell’s practice is inspired by his interests in biology, microscopy, neuroscience, psychology and spirituality. His abstract works are located at the intersection of art and science, drawing on subject matter that has been informed by collective narratives and lived experiences of disease and illness. Through his artwork, he is particularly interested in confronting the repercussions that emotional distress and physical violence have on human behaviour, thought patterns and other aspects of day-to-day life. Embodying a strong sense of hope and optimism for the future, Sean’s work provides a message intended to inspire growth and healing.

McDowell was recently a recipient of a 2025 City of Melbourne Annual Arts Grant and was shortlisted for the 2025 Bayside Painting Prize. His work is held in public, private and corporate collections throughout Australia and internationally in the USA, Singapore, Germany and the Netherlands.

Max Lawrence White

Max Lawrence White is a Melbourne (Naarm) based artist whose practice is primarily concerned with painting. His work centres on colour and its tendency to be inexhaustible within its combinations, readings and meanings. Through his artworks, he aims to present an unconventional experience and a challenge to how the viewer perceives colour. White completed a Bachelor of Fine Art at RMIT in 2011 and went on to complete an Honours degree in Fine Art at the Victorian College of The Arts in 2012. Since then, he has exhibited extensively across Melbourne and Sydney.

Ollie Lucas

Ollie Lucas is a multidisciplinary Melbourne (Naarm) based artist known for his vibrant and immersive works that draw inspiration from colourful advertising and neon cityscapes. His work centres on his creative take on the industrial function of coloured flags and signals that direct the travel of trains, planes, and ships, known as semaphores. Settings within urban areas such as Federation Square, Times Square, Moscow's Red Square, and Shibuya offer a visual and audio feast of semaphore imagery. These sites are often multifunctional: a workplace, a festive space, a physical location or a hyperreal site for information-exchange, all at once. This cacophony of imagery - posters, billboards, flags and signals are translated into Lucas’s paintings in an attempt to explain our current urban consciousness.
