FELTspace is an Artist Run Initiative established in 2008 by Annika Evans, Rayleen Forester, Logan Macdonald, Monte Masi and Brigid Noone. With its exhibition space in Compton Street at the heart of Adelaide’s Central Market district, FELTspace has quickly become a centre for the emerging contemporary visual arts community and an important site for the development, exhibition and discussion of new work by emerging and recognised visual artists in South Australia. FELTspace is unique as the only ARI with a permanent site in Adelaide’s CBD dedicated to the promotion of contemporary visual arts practices. FELTspace has a focus on promoting emerging and early career artists, with opportunities for more established artists to show in a non-commercial and non-institutional space.
The current FELTspace committee is comprised of Ray Harris, Jessie Lumb, Logan Macdonald, James Marshall, Riley OKeeffe and Patrick Rees. This group of emerging artists, writers and curators is committed to the support, development and promotion of contemporary art and artists within South Australia as well as engaging with a national network of artist-run initiatives and artists.
