Biography

The idea for Kaleidoscope Editions came to us [Kelly Gellatly, Kirsty Grant, Bronwyn Johnson] as the 2020 pandemic continued into 2021, and as our hometown of Melbourne was affected by successive lockdowns. We began to talk about what we wanted to change in our lives and in the art world, and of the need for ingenuity. How could three highly qualified and experienced women in the arts create, work, and collaborate differently? We knew that we wanted the system to change, and that we wanted to create and work within a culture of generosity; one with care and respect at its heart. Yet rather than trying to change existing structures and projects, we decided to create our own, and so, Kaleidoscope Editions was born.

It's important to us that Kaleidoscope Editions provides new creative opportunities for artists and that this occurs within a supportive and equitable business model. We are not commercial gallerists or secondary market dealers – we are curators motivated by our love of art and of empowering and supporting artists to make great work. Driven by our shared passion for works on paper (and dogs, and champagne … but that’s another story!) we want to support Australian artists to reimagine original prints and multiples and transform how their work reaches and engages audiences. Most of all, we want to have fun, and ensure that everyone we collaborate with shares our passion and excitement about making this a reality.
