Come and join us for a celebration of art, home, and culture at our 'City Country Coast' exhibition.
As artists, we are always looking for new ways to share our passion with the world. That's why we are excited to announce our collaboration with artists Jessie Feitosa and Parita Thakkar, alongside amazing host Fee. Together, we are bringing you a unique and immersive art experience in the heart of South Melbourne.
Our exhibition will showcase a collection of artworks that are inspired by the city, country, and coast. From the vibrant energy of the city to the tranquility of the countryside and the salty breeze of the ocean, we've got it all covered.
But what sets us apart is the way we're presenting our art. Instead of a traditional gallery, we're transforming a beautiful boutique accommodation into a styled home environment. This way, you'll get to see how art can compliment and enhance the look and feel of your own space.
Don't miss out on this one-of-a-kind art experience. See you there!
Love, Jessie, Parita & Fiona
Date and time:
Friday 15 March, 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Saturday 16 March, 2pm - 4pm

I love the way art feels in a home. Whether it’s a neutral colour palette or pops of saturated colour, the artwork brings life to a space.
