We are pleased to announce that Belem Lett has been selected as a finalist in the 2025 Calleen Art Award for his work Nocturnal. The piece combines raw pigments with oil paint, layered over a rich indigo matte background, creating a striking exploration of colour, depth, and atmosphere.
The Calleen Art Award is an annual acquisitive painting prize and exhibition awarded to one, established or emerging, artist across Australia. The finalist’s exhibition will be held at Cowra Regional Art Gallery from 30 August to 5 October. Voting is open for the People’s Choice Award until the end of the exhibition.
