‘A Seat at the Table, Group Exhibition
Art & Collectors
2026
‘A Seat at the Table celebrates the women who made room for themselves — and for those who would follow —
in the evolving conversation of Australian art. Set around an antique Japanese dining table, the gallery becomes a place of gathering, salon-hung, conversational, like stories shared over a meal. This exhibition honours both history and momentum, celebrating the enduring power of Australian women artists. Take a seat with these women — cool, composed, and collected.’
I am pleased to share two works within this exhibition, ‘First Tulips of the Season’ and ‘Clem Reaching into the Oven to Take out the Granola’.
The work above, 'Clem reaching into the oven to take out the granola' was recently featured on the galleries Art & Collectors Artsy profile, which can be viewed here.
More from the Gallery Director, Angela Tandori on the featured work:
‘Melbourne-based artist Evie Cahir transforms everyday moments into richly atmospheric scenes filled with warmth, colour, and intimacy.
In 'Clem reaching into the oven to take out the granola', a simple domestic moment becomes quietly compelling. Bathed in warmth and familiarity, the scene feels less observed than shared - inviting viewers into the comfort and rhythm of the kitchen through Cahir’s deeply personal lens.’
