The Space

window99 was an installation space in the window of 99 Brunswick Street, Fitzroy. It was a not-for-profit, artist focused space, open 24 hours a day, everyday.

The Idea

window99 offer an alternative to exhibiting art within the white cube by moving the gallery into the public setting. This also provided artists with an opportunity to exhibit their work within a highly exposed, flexible window box for an affordable rate.

The New Venture

window99 has now resolved with a new space three doors up being the next venture for Marie and Leo. The new initiative is called Conduit Arts and continues the window99 and Rollerdoor Performance Space focus on bringing emerging artists, musician and performers together along with their audiences.

Ramona Telecican


Paris Hilton in Faux Fur is a work embracing and reflecting upon a sub culture of social disease addicts. Addicts based on being anarchistic within social constraints, obtaining luxury without understanding the lifestyle, and counseling their admirers with homogeneous gratitude and empathy. Their first words were; marketing, PR and exponential.

Ramona Telecican's practice emerges from within three frameworks: form. repetition. delicacy. As a professional Stylist and Creative Producer, Ramona's work as an Artist finds her exploring the curiosities and intricacies of how aesthetics effect us when the power of context is in her hands.


Veronica Cust & Benjamin Woods


Can you pass me something please is a collaboration between Melbourne Artists Veronica Cust and Benjamin Woods. This work details a specific mode of physical production, closely associated with simple everyday tasks of transferring. The performance led investigation details the movement of the two artists in uniform as they enact actions of throwing, stacking and catching. Through “acting out” this simple scripted task the artists not only engage with the physicality of the act itself, but also with the absurdity of the task when it is going towards no end.
