In Good Company brings together the eight resident artists of The Incubator Creative Hub’s Villa Studios. Each artist approaches their work from a distinct perspective, spanning photography, textile art, mixed media, painting, and illustration, creating a richly layered exhibition that invites curiosity and connection. The varied works are united by place, yet diverse in voice, material, and intent.
Visitors can expect an open, conversational atmosphere where the stories behind the work are just as engaging as the pieces themselves. Artists will be present at different times throughout the exhibition, offering opportunities to meet, ask questions, and gain insight into their processes and inspirations. It’s a chance to experience a wide spectrum of contemporary creative practice in one space.
Exhibiting are:
Leah Creaven, Textile Artist
Dianna Smith, Oil Painting
Shona Mackenzie, Mixed Media Artist
Tracey Finch, Contemporary Painting
Mathew Johnson, Photographer & Digital Artist
Laura Neundoerfer - Mixed Media Artist
Hope McConnell, Designer & Illustrator
