Saint Cloche Gallery is thrilled to present BLEMISH, the latest exhibition by Sydney-based contemporary artist Elliott Routledge. BLEMISH invites viewers to explore individuality through imperfection, celebrating the raw, awkward, and real aspects of human experience.

In this compelling body of work, Routledge embraces the imperfect, the irregular, and the idiosyncratic - highlighting marks, textures, and materials that defy uniformity. Through abstract paintings, tactile surfaces, and sculptural forms, BLEMISH captures the essence of being human: incomplete, textured, and ever-changing. Each piece turns physical and conceptual blemishes into sources of beauty, challenging societal standards of perfection.

“Supporting artists and fostering meaningful connections with collectors has always been at the heart of what we do. Over the years, we have helped grow the careers of many artists we’ve worked with, providing a platform for their practice to thrive.”

- Kitty Clark, Founder
