House Conspiracy proudly presents "Beautifully rotting", a solo exhibition by Gemma Raponi - aka @gemini_jpeg_ Saturday 31st of January 5pm - 9pm 42 Mollison Street, West End Free entry! "Beautifully Rotting explores mortality as a return rather than an ending. Through vivid colour, botanical motifs, and ethereal forms, Gemma Raponi reflects on the body’s journey home—to the earth that gives us energy, sustains us, and ultimately asks for it in return. Embracing decay as tender and transformative, this exhibition invites viewers to see death as a quiet exchange: a process where the body dissolves, nourishes the land, and continues within the cycle of renewal." Gemma Raponi and the House Conspiracy team acknowledge that this event will take place on the stolen lands of the Jagera and Turrbal people. Their sovereignty was never ceded. It always was and will be Aboriginal land.

We’re excited to introduce our current artist in residence, Gemma Raponi aka @gemini_jpeg_ !! “Gemma Raponi is a multidisciplinary artist based in Meanjin whose vivid, botanical imagery explores grief, mortality, and the body’s return to nature—using bright colour and ethereal forms to reimagine death as a tender, transformative cycle rather than an ending. Working across paints, watercolours, inks, pens, and pencils, she creates delicate yet deliberate works that sit between the tangible and the spiritual, inviting quiet reflection on life, decay, and renewal." Gemma Raponi's residency showcase is coming up - on Saturday 31st of January. Keep your peepers on House Conspiracy's socials for more details!
