Meet Kitty Wong, founder of Saint Cloche. The former fashion buyer who followed her dream to open her own art gallery.

Fluid forms, rippling textures, vibrant palettes and geometric shapes define the eclectic range of works by the 10 artists featured in our group show Brasília. The show, curated by Kitty Wong, was inspired by the vibrancy of Brazilian culture and the rich aesthetics one associates with the architectural structures and natural forms that make up the incredibly diverse landscape of Brasília.

We loved seeing the gallery space come to life with the sounds of people enjoying food and drink, engaging in animated conversation and sharing stories whilst celebrating the work of the finalists of the Little Things Art Prize, whose inspiring work was the perfect backdrop to our Spring Feast.

There was a true sense of community as family and friends of participants, art aficionado’s and locals from the area gathered at the gallery to view the impressive variety of works by the Little Things art prize finalists.

Creative Zen - two of the elements that were the focus of our first Ikebana workshop. The workshop saw our space converted into a glasshouse filled with native Australian fauna flowed from the vases as well as a mix of colourful exotic species. Bright colours, varying textures and differing sizes of the flowers provided great inspiration and creative potential.

This July, we will be hosting two Ikebana workshops run by Setsuko Yanagisawa from Yuga Flora during the exhibition Made/Arranged. The exhibition explores the way in which Minimalism and the Zen aesthetic share both conceptual and artistic values that are clearly translated into the art form of Ikebana.

One of Sydney's steamiest summer evenings made for a perfect Mediterranean soirée and Opening Event for our Grand Finalé group exhibition of 2015 ~ RIVIERA. Guests were transported to the dreamy haze of the RIVIERA by potted cacti surrounds reminiscent of the iconic coastline, sweet strums of the spanish guitar and the evocative Mediterranean-inspired works of 13 artists.

Thank you to all who came and joined us at the opening reception of A Day in the Country. We were honoured to have acclaimed Australian author Frank Moorhouse open the event.

A BIG Thank You to MARY VAN DE WIEL & JAN HOWLIN, Grey Goose Vodka and all who came to celebrate the power of black line and spontaneous mark-making, at the opening event of Black Line Boogie.

A BIG Thank You to LISA MADIGAN, our event sponsors and all who shared this very special opening event with us. We hope you enjoyed this magical evening as much as we did! Guests were treated to an event of substance, luxury & heart throbbingly beautiful paintings.
