‼️📣 Today is the FINAL day to experience our work in person at

Thank you to everyone who has visited the presentation and shared such generous feedback. It’s always refreshing to see our different formats of framed textiles, wall works and three-dimensional sculptural pieces experienced in a new light and setting.

It’s now been a week overseas visiting our motherland, The Philippines, and we’ve slowly settled into a gentler pace of sun, salt, clear blue skies and ocean air. It’s been a beautiful reminder of the warmth and spirit of the Filipino people, and the deep sense of resourcefulness, resilience and work ethic woven into everyday life here.

Pictured here are two frames from our ‘PAHIYAS’ collection, celebrating the thanksgiving harvest festival of our ancestral hometown of Lucban, Quezon. Titled ‘HABI HARVEST’ and ‘KIPING HALO’ , these soft textures, morning light hues and hints of sari-sari flair speak to the barangay spirit that fills the town during festival season.

Handwoven with love and intention, we see these adding a unique touch to any space, whether hanging solo or as a duo.

SABBIA | PRESENTATION

MATERIAL MEMORY
Lauren + Kass Hernandez
15 April - 9 May 2026

SABBIA broadens its artistic landscape, welcoming the expansive sculptural fibre practice of Lauren and Kass Hernandez into its celebrated program of Australian artists.

Sabbia has long been recognised for presenting the finest Australian and First Nations artists working in glass and ceramics, alongside a growing commitment to fibre practices over the last eight years. This presentation marks an exciting expansion of that vision.

Lauren and Kass Hernandez unveil a powerful body of large‑scale sculptural and installation‑based fibre works, complemented by more intimate pieces that reveal the nuance of their collaborative practice.

Together, they extend Sabbia’s artistic realm and deepen the gallery’s engagement with contemporary fibre art. Their work celebrates material knowledge, experimentation and cultural continuity, offering an immersive experience that broadens Sabbia’s dedication to Australia’s most dynamic artists.

IN THE THICK OF IT 🧶💪🏽 // Deep in the studio, fully immersed in our current commission, a public commercial project destined for a high-traffic thoroughfare (details under wraps for now!)

With every commission, we look for ways to add a little extra, to push our practice and craft further. It’s especially meaningful when our clients join us on the journey and embrace that evolution alongside us.

Can you spot the “new” addition emerging here?
