Congratulations @pearlaustin_art from @umoonaartcentre @apy_ac_collective 🙌 who's beautiful painting 'The Memory of Water II' has been selected as a finalist for the 2026 @gosfordgallery Art Prize.

In this work, Austin reflects on the resilience of Mabel Creek, her grandmother's homelands, which were impacted by the construction of Lonesome Dam. Despite this significant intervention, the creek endures. For the artist and her family, returning to Mabel Creek is an act of reconnection and renewal; a place where cultural knowledge, memory, and belonging continue to be strengthened following generations of separation from Country as a result of the Stolen Generations.

This work was the first of Pearl's Mabel Creek series, produced during her 2 week April residency here in Paddington, on Gadigal Country @8wallgallery 💜

Opening this month @gosfordgallery

FINND & Deep Web proudly present… 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞 @c0ll3 , the moniker of New York based musician 𝐌𝐚𝐲𝐚 𝐌𝐜𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐫𝐲, for an intimate evening at The Vanguard.

Colle’s music gracefully tiptoes through every kind of misty, hazy subgenre of contemporary pop music: trip, dream, ambient, hypnagogic, and even several types of -tronicas. Carried by her airy vocal delivery, delicate guitar work and ethereal production, Colle’s 2024 album ‘𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐯𝐨’, released on London imprint @urtruimage , delivers the sort of blissed out feelings we’ve only encountered on the edge of a beautiful slumber.

Coinciding with the debut Australian tour of Chanel Beads, Colle will be bringing her luminous solo work as well to Australian audiences for the very first time, joined by an exceptional local lineup of sonic daydreamers:

Sadly I must head home tomorrow. But to all my friends in Australia, thank you so much for making it so hard to leave: from dancing to grilling to beaches to nerding out over speakers and land rovers, every day here was a happy one. I'll be back as soon as I can!

2025 in reverse - most of my highlights were food, music, friends and ideally some blend of the three - thank you for being a part of my year

ok wow had to take a beat after our Pheonix show to bask in that sweet afterglow. What a treat to play into such a grand space, so fancy!. To try something different, a bit of story, song, a little bit improvised, a little bit theatric(for us) and everything between composed locked-in-focus to child-like silliness & smirking joy(vital). I’ve been thinking about how important it is to let musicians/artists slip outside of formulas and genre expectations, to tune in and meet them where they’re at with curiosity, both for their growth and one’s own; in most music writing, bands are in part defined by what other groups the members have been in and what other bands they sound like, I think in someways it’s an obsession with nostalgia. I understand why but most times I find this lazy and boring and limiting; in the refusal to play part, to be chameleon feels like you bring along those who are paying attention, along for the ever bending ride as well as staying true to what feels right in relationship to your own creativity, your spark; I think this is paramount. Bla bla bla all this is to say im grateful for spaces like Phoenix that are wholly curated by curiosity over dogma, and to all those that listen keenly and diversely!

this show meant so much to us and was made even better by sweet talented virgo kin David (@davidsuyasa ) and Felix ( @beef.ledger ), all practices leading up to, were beaming w trust n love n the generosity required to try something new !

Big love to those who got up to play with us during the last song! It had been a dream to invite you to play with us in that space and I’m so glad you did!!

Biggest thanks to the whole Phoenix team ( @phoenixcentralpark ), all beautiful passionate people & to Jack Moran( @jackmoran_76 )for the epic photos.

Everyone who was in that room was meant to be in that room; perfect send off to a massive year for
the toll.
