Flights of Love: A Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration at Romulus Folio

Mark Alexander X Angelina Mirabito

Romulus Folio is proud to present Flights of Love, a collaboration between our ongoing resident artist, Angelina Mirabito and Australian luxury interior designer, bespoke furniture maker and artist, Mark Alexander. This project embodies the gallery’s commitment to fostering bold, transformative, and dialogue-driven art at the intersection of disciplines.

Flights of Love brings together Angelina’s expressive, extreme textured painting practice with Mark’s precise and inventive design sensibility, resulting in a series of works that explore tension and harmony, fragility and strength, intimacy and expansiveness. The project is conceived as a journey through interior space, where each piece resonates with the rhythms, textures, and atmospheres of the home with a state of the art flowing staircase. Viewers are invited to experience a layered narrative of movement and transformation, where colour, form, and materiality converge to evoke both emotional and spatial experiences.

The works in Flights of Love embody the poetic possibilities of collaboration. Paintings, surfaces, and bespoke furniture interact, responding to one another and creating an immersive environment that encourages audiences to engage deeply with the interplay between art and design as an entire experience of an interior. The project is about individual pieces that at once exist in their own right and interdependently, together crafting a dynamic sense of story, dialogue, and presence within a space.

This collaboration also reflects the gallery’s ethos of supporting projects that challenge conventional boundaries. By uniting artist and designer, Flights of Love illuminates the evolving relationship between fine art and applied design and demonstrates how creative partnerships can expand the language of contemporary interiors.

At Romulus Folio, we continue to champion projects that are ambitious, innovative, and immersive. Flights of Love is the beginning of an ongoing exploration, and we are excited to share where the this path is leading us, both for the artists upcoming collaborations and for the gallery’s 2026 program embracing the intersection of art, design and myth.
