Jelena Telecki is a Yugoslavian, Sydney based artist working amongst a practice of painting, drawing and sculpture to explore representation and its possibilities. Looking towards the absurd to investigate the personal and the political. 

Her paintings display rich elements of narrative, the paintings themselves almost mimicking the likes of film stills, or rather a play through their theatrical nature. Cropped figures surrounded by murky greyscale atmospheres, luring viewers into a narrative that they don't quite know all the answers too.  

Within her current self-titled show at Starkwhite, Jelena Telecki showcases work from the past decade of her practice. Bringing these works, and their figures together in space and time, through their overarching connected atmospheres. Creating this enhanced feeling of her work as an extended play, experiencing each act through every encounter of a painting. 

Maya had a chat with Jelena about the show and overall practice.

Studio X is an exhibition by Ōtepoti-based artist Graham Fletcher, currently on at Gow Langsford Gallery. 

Fletcher is known for his representations of architecture, interiors, art, and the domestic, bringing together contemporary and customary forms, and intermixing Western high art and indigenous traditions in his paintings. 

Inspired by the likes of Mattisse’s The Pink Studio (1911), in this new body of work, Fletcher reflects on the intimate artist’s studio as his locational subject, transforming the physical space of artmaking into art itself. 

Not depicting any one specific studio or space, the paintings extend an interest in Fletcher’s practice in the ways in which he can visually communicate complex cultural discourses between Western and non-Western settings, often in a contemporary Pacific and New Zealand context, speaking to his own Samoan and European heritage.

Sofia had a kōrero with Graham Fletcher about Studio X and his process.
