Amelia Gill (b. 2001) is a Melbourne based artist who works in a post-conceptual way, appropriating works as diverse as a Bellini fresco to digital animations on screen. Gill plays with the breadth of visual culture in a deft way sliding down the surface of things with a sense of good humour and some satire. ‘Creighton’ and ‘Amherst’ read as graphic abstraction but on closer inspection reveal themselves as cropped details of digital acceptance letters from prestigious American universities that Gill has found online. Gill precisely reproduces the letters as paintings as a kind of ‘interface of victory’, capturing the moment where aspiration becomes achievement. Her laborious process ultimately gives a similar weight to the moments they capture.

See Amelia's works alongside other recent acquisitions in 'Shuffle,' a dynamic exhibition showcasing newly accessioned artworks before they enter circulation through Artbank's leasing program.

Coincidentally coinciding with the extraordinary migration of Bogong moths across New South Wales, Anna Louise Richardson’s ‘Moth I’ and ‘Moth II’ 2025 have also just flown back to Artbank Sydney, and are now available to lease.

Virginia Woolf described the moth as life essentialised, “it was as if someone had taken a tiny bead of pure life and decking it as lightly as possible with down and feathers, had set it dancing and zig-zagging to show us the true nature of life”.

Anna Louise Richardson (b. 1992) is an artist and freelance curator investigating rural Australian identity and associated mythologies. Richardson works primarily in charcoal and graphite on cement fibreboard, using a realistic approach, flattened perspective, cut-out shapes and manipulated scale to amplify the subject matter.
