Nicola Mason’s Happenings is now upon us! This is Mason’s first solo show at Murrurundi, and the paintings are now beautifully displayed at the gallery.

Happenings takes inspiration from everyday domestic objects. Mason sets a dynamic scene, grouping and opposing objects in a unique manner. It is this interaction of seemingly familiar items that intrigues and brings the compositions to life.

Mason has been gaining traction in the art world in recent years with six solo exhibitions and recognition as a finalist in art prizes such as the Paddington Art Prize 2022, the Muswellbrook Art Prize 2023, Redland Art Award 2022, and the Basil Sellers Art Prize 2022.

Mason has a background in conservation and land management. However. in 2016 she left her position to concentrate on her art practice, studying at both the Australian National University and the University of New South Wales Art & Design, where she earned a place on the Dean’s List for her Honours Year in 2019

Static and Silence is Stacey McCall‘s second solo exhibition at Michael Reid Murrurundi which follows her major presentation of paintings at Sydney Contemporary 2022. The art fair saw all twenty of McCall’s paintings sell by day one of the event, establishing the artist as an emerging leader in her field.

Illustrating assemblages of household items and locally sourced flora, McCall’s autumnal oil paintings are delicately layered and excellently composed. Static and Silence groups twenty of the artist’s newest works of art.
