New Works By | Stephen Brameld & Jay Staples
3 – 26 April 2025
Art Leven – 17 Thurlow St, Redfern, Gadigal / Sydney
‘New Works By’ is a solo exhibition by Walyalup (Fremantle) artist duo Stephen Brameld and Jay Staples, recipients of the 2024 Art Leven award as part of the Paddington Art Prize. As self-taught artists practicing in painting, sculpture and video, Brameld and Staples simultaneously work on the same artwork until they reach a point of mutual recognition.
Their work explores improvisation, shared consciousness, regeneration and mysticism through a rugged workshop-like approach to painting and sculpting, using a wide array of materials.
