NSW Visual Arts Fellowship (Emerging)

Overview
The NSW Visual Arts Fellowship (Emerging) program celebrates the dynamism of early-career artists in New South Wales. The 2025 shortlisted finalists are Ellen Ferrier, Ellie Hannon, Ali Noble, Vedika Rampal, Joel Sherwood-Spring and Ali Tahayori, who have all been working with Sarah Rose, Artspace's Associate Curator.
Presented in partnership with Create NSW, and representing a breadth of conceptual and material explorations, the VAF(E) exhibition offers an insightful survey into how emerging artists are pushing boundaries and engaging with the critical ideas of our times.
From these six finalists, one will be the recipient of $30,000 to undertake a self-directed program of professional development, supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW. The recipient will be announced at the exhibition opening night.
