Stripes 7 – Inside Out

See the full series of paintings available for acquisition on the Hill Smith Art Advisory website here.

Hill Smith Art Advisory return to our Gallery to present Brenton Drechsler‘s new exhibition Stripes 7 – Inside Out.

Stripes 7 – Inside Out reflects Brenton’s growing ease with his own company, shaped by queer subjectivity, lived experience, and the quiet rhythms of daily life. Through recurring striped motifs and evolving narrative elements, this exhibition traces a year of inhabiting spaces both internal and physical, with Brenton’s art practice offering comfort, continuity, and a deeper sense of being at home with himself.

Brenton Drechsler is an Australian, emerging contemporary visual artist. His practice explores notions of orientation, personal narrative and opacity through the subjective lens of his queer identity.

Explore Brenton Drechsler’s practice further in our Studio, featuring a newly commissioned short film capturing the artist at work in his Adelaide Hills studio created by Iris Seraya and Simon Cadman of Studio Seraya. Commissioned by Hill Smith Art Advisory in collaboration with Brenton Drechsler, the film offers an intimate glimpse into his creative process. This is complemented by a digital showcase of earlier paintings, alongside reflective commentary from the artist.
