Odessa Mahony-de Vries 'Unbound' at Mitchell Fine Art

exhibition · 2026-05-06

Mitchell Fine Art is hosting Sunshine Coast-based artist Odessa Mahony-de Vries in her solo exhibition 'Unbound'. The show features large-scale abstract oil paintings created through a process-driven approach where color moves freely across the surface. Mahony-de Vries begins each work with a gesture, mark, wash, or textured stroke, allowing compositions to evolve intuitively. Layers accumulate, shift, and dissolve, revealing traces of earlier decisions. The exhibition explores embodied mark making.
