We’re shining a light on our incredible creatives over the coming months. The talent, innovation and artistry across our region continues to blow us away- and we can’t wait to share it with the world.

Hailing from Temora, NSW, @elyssastoreyartist draws inspiration from the countryside around her, transforming everyday rural scenes into bold, emotive artworks through Australian Abstract Realism and Rural Photography.

One artwork.
One hundred stories.
One million ways to connect.

Every person who encounters this 22 metre-long corridor artwork in Griffith Base Hospital brings their own lens, their own story, their own way of interpreting the world around them. That’s the beauty of site-specific art for healthcare settings where so many different lives intersect.

“Art allows us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.” First quoted by Thomas Merton and more recently, by Ivy Ross and Susan Magsamen in @yourbrainonartbook where they explore how art fosters introspection and a deeper understanding of our own identities.

Since the newly redeveloped Griffith Base Hospital opened in June 2025, it’s been fascinating to hear first-hand, how people are responding to the art.

If you’re keen to find out, I’ve written an article about it. You can find the link in my bio.

Congratulations to Wagga based artist Elaine Camlin on launching new works at Orange Regional Gallery!

ORM PROJECT – Launches this Friday!

I am so excited to be sharing the works I created as part of the Orange Regional Musuem Creative Collections Project.

I will be speaking alongside the other two commissioned artists at the launch event and also facilitating a community workshop on Saturday, Threads of Connection.

About the project:
In January 2025, @orangeregionalmuseum selected 3 NSW-based artists to develop a creative response to objects from our collection.

Hear from @lissfinney @laurabakerartist and Elaine Camlin about the objects they selected, their creative process, and see the final product.

At this event, we`ll consider collections, local history and memory, and how creative responses to historic objects can breathe new life into them.

📆 Friday 4 July, 6pm

📍151 Byng St, Orange NSW
