At the centre of the is Sarah Fletcher, who connects her network of artists with architects, , property developers and collectors, building a creative community that supports both artistic practice and patronage.
What distinguishes this exhibition is its setting within a private home in Toorak, . Artworks are displayed in situ, allowing visitors to experience , painting and design within a lived environment and to imagine how each piece could transform their own spaces.
Sculptures, paintings, ceramics, photography, furniture and lighting from 30 established and exciting new artists will be expertly curated to provide the experiential for the visitor.
One of the many impressive inclusions is a Puffalo modular lounge designed by , showcasing the work of exceptional street artist Tom Gerrard. Titled Rest Assured, the piece transforms the curvaceous into a functional artwork covered in Gerrard’s distinctive abstract flora and geometric motifs.
Over two days, Gerrard transformed the furniture into his canvas, painting vibrant compositions of real and imagined flora across every surface. The result is a dynamic, one-of-a-kind Puffalo that elevates the idea of custom design.
