Celia Gullett's 'Spirit into Matter' at Jan Murphy Gallery

Celia Gullett, a painter from Sydney, will showcase her exhibition 'Spirit into Matter' at the Jan Murphy Gallery in Queensland from August 5 to 29, 2026. This collection features artworks influenced by abstraction, colour field painting, minimalism, and ancient Asian philosophies. Gullett's pieces are characterized by a subdued tradition that resists quick interpretations, inviting viewers to engage with them similarly to music, revealing their essence through pauses, repetition, and rhythm. Among the works displayed is 'Soft light' (2026), an oil on linen piece measuring 168 × 137 cm, provided by both the artist and the gallery. The exhibition promotes a more deliberate way of viewing, allowing meaning to unfold over time through focused observation.
