Sealounge - Pop-Up Gallery, Geraldton

Some ideas start simply. I wanted a space that felt like the sea.

Not a gallery in the traditional sense. Not just a shop. Somewhere you could slow down, breathe, let the seaside state of mind do what it does. Sea-inspired sounds, SoulCircles on the walls, original works and fine art prints alongside fashion accessories and homewares. A place to linger rather than pass through.

To bring it to life I collaborated with award-winning Geraldton photographer Karl Monaghan, his lens, my ink, both of us drawn to the ocean as a way of seeing. Together we created an interactive space that felt genuinely alive.

The Sealounge opened on Marine Terrace in Geraldton's city centre, officially launched by Mayor Shane Van Styn to a full house. For the time it was open, it brought something back to that stretch of street, colour, warmth, a reason to pause.
