Nauti Studios Sydney is on Gadigal land and Nauti Studios Blue Mountains is on Dharug and Gundungarra land. These are the true and traditional custodians of the lands on which we work and we are disappointed with the outcome of the national referendum on amending the Constitution to recognise the First Peoples of Australia through the establishment of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice. In Stanmore 86.9% of residents voted ‘yes’ and in Hazelbrook 61.7% did the same. Nauti Studios stands with the results of our electorates.
Nauti Sailor Sabrina spoke to artist Lea Kannar-Lichtenberger about their exhibition Antarctica: All to Lose now showing at the Chrissie Cotter Gallery.

Produced in association with the Blue Mountains World Heritage Institute, the year long project affectionately named the Swamp Residencies brings together artists, ecologists and bush regeneration experts for ‘creative swamp research’ in Gundungarra and Dharag country. Exhibited at Articulate Project Space Immersion: Conversations from the Swamp Residencies presents works by the twelve participating artists including Dr Cheryle Yin Lo, an interdisciplinary artist and regular workshop facilitator at Nauti Studios in Hazelbrook. Soon after opening in late August I spoke with Cheryle about their experience.
Nat Cheney is a reputable green thumb. Over the last 8 years Nat has cultivated over 500+ indoor house plants at Nauti Studios Sydney and Nauti Studios Blue Mountains. And almost two years ago Nat started ‘The Plant Doctor’, teaching people how to care for indoor plants, make terrariums and more.
We got behind the scenes, and asked Nat some red hot indoor plant Qs during a repotting session at Nauti Studios Blue Mountains.

It is in these hard times that we must let our experiences be the birthing place for new creations. Some of the greatest works have stemmed from times of crisis.
Here are some great pieces of music, film, literature and art that have been created, inspired by crises.

After a year and a half of work transforming the old warehouse space into the fantastically nautical themed space it is today, Nat opened the doors to the creatives of Sydney. One of the most interesting things about Nauti Studios is its emphasis on sustainability, upcycling, and caring for the environment. We spoke to Nat about why it is just so important to her.
