Celia Gullett is a Sydney-based painter. Her work is influenced by art-historical movements, including abstraction, colour field painting and minimalism, as well as ancient Asian philosophies.

Gullett states, “Everything I do is centred around colour and surface. Visible depths in the paint are created by layering and reduction, to evoke a sense of diffused light, and the crystallisation of experience into paint.” The tension in this process, between the repetitious brushstroke and layering to create optical complexity, is the touchstone of Gullett’s studio practice.

Celia Gullett graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the College of Fine Arts, University of New South Wales. Gullett was the Winner of the Allan Gamble prize Mosman Art Prize in 2025, and has been a repeat finalist in Sydney’s Mosman and Paddington Art Prizes (2002-16). She has held solo exhibitions since 2002 and participated in group exhibitions since 1996 in Australia, Singapore, London, Los Angeles and Sweden. Her paintings are held in the Macquarie University Art Collection, SECCA in Bega and in private collections both nationally and internationally.
