Olsen Gallery announces representation of Evie Adasal

Olsen Gallery adds Sydney-based painter Evie Adasal, whose practice explores the subtle interplay of light, space and perception.

Words: Lachlan Conn

With a background in photography, film and fine art, Evie Adasal creates paintings that merge the poetic and the elemental, inviting quiet reflection through her refined visual language. A graduate of the College of Fine Arts, UNSW, her work is distinguished by its sensitivity to tone, atmosphere and spatial depth.

Recent exhibitions include The Shape of Light (Anthea Polson, 2024) and Light and Space (The Garden Gallery, 2025). Her practice has gained wide recognition through major national art prizes, among them the Little Things Art Prize (2025), National Emerging Art Prize (2025), and Hawkesbury Art Prize (Commended, 2025). She was also the winner of the Anthea Polson Prize in 2023.

A solo exhibition is planned for April/May 2026.
