Overview

Rainbow Studios sits on a bright corner in Darlinghurst, delivering a chameleon-like space that celebrates community, art and the fusion of both. The creative gallery is born from the minds of jewellery designer Brent Gold and his partner Jade Gillett (pictured at top), who together platform artists and their work with regular exhibitions, as well as house an expertly curated array of jewellery, homewares, fine art and more ready to come home with visitors.

First up in 2023? Being, an exploration of our collective human experience via the use of colour, form and composition by Noosa Hinterland-based artist Kate Florence and Melbourne-based multi-disciplinary artist Clare Dubina. From Thursday, February 23–Thursday, March 9, the painted works from this vibrant duo will be gracing the walls of Rainbow Studios — an excellent reason to get yourself to this delightful slice of Sydney (a morning visit perhaps, with pancakes being flipped at bills just across the road). Feel free to drop in during opening hours (10am–3pm Wednesday–Friday and 10am–2pm on Saturdays), or arrange a private viewing by appointment.

Rich, earthy hues and elongated figures are fused with floral forms in the pair's abstract compositions. While created separately and from unique lenses, when explored in tandem, the artists' bodies of work are perfectly complementary.

Rainbow Studios' inaugural duo show will be celebrated with an opening night event on Thursday, February 23 at 6pm. The event is free to attend, though you're encouraged to register your attendance prior.
