Felicity O’Connor: Scripted Landscapes at Straitjacket, NSW

Central Coast painter Felicity O’Connor presents 'Scripted Landscapes' at Straitjacket gallery in New South Wales, running from 1 to 23 August 2026. The exhibition features works that employ archetypal symbols reminiscent of ancient cave markings, with the Australian landscape serving as an enduring reference. O’Connor, who studied art therapy and psychology, weaves conscious and unconscious influences into her practice, creating a suspended narrative that is part story, part dream, part memory. The show includes the painting 'Scritto' (detail), 2025, oil on canvas, 112 × 124 cm, courtesy of the artist and Straitjacket. The exhibition explores meaning felt rather than defined, influenced by artists who connect directly with their experience.
