Episode 241 - Sky's the limit with Sulman prize Winner, Gene A'hern

Send us Fan Mail

Join Australian abstract artist Gene A’Hern, winner of the 2025 Sir John Sulman Prize, for a laid-back conversation about colour, atmosphere and the feeling of landscape. Gene talks openly about his process, working on instinct, and what it’s like to be recognised on one of Australia’s biggest art stages. It’s an easy, thoughtful chat about memory, place and how those ideas turn into bold, expressive abstract paintings. 

We recorded the epiosde at the end of 2025 in his studio in Emu Plains. 

Thanks Gene, we loved talking to you and seeing your work in the studio! 

Gene is represented by Cassandra Bird in Sydney

and Simchowitz Gallery, LA, USA
