Late & Light
Ellie Hannon 21 Oct - 6 Nov 2022 These works are based on intuitive sketches from my time spent on the road, out bush in Australia, throughout 2022. They capture contemplative, intimate moments of moving through a landscape at dawn or dusk. These paintings invoke the moon and the sun as channels for shared narratives - beacons that... Read more -
A Chance For Possibility
Charlotte Alldis 21 Oct - 6 Nov 2022 Days at the studio emerged as a diary for expressions and devotion, an eye on what I could not see. It is this voyage that develops my sense of well-being on an ongoing basis, a marker for both time and possibility. The practice allows me to traverse what it means... Read more -
Learning Machine
Dave Court 23 Sep - 9 Oct 2022 Through Learning Machine, Dave Court explores the collapse in the dichotomies of digital and analogue, predictability and the unprecedented, and the blurring of lines between human and machine. In so doing, he reopens questions of the convergence of physical and virtual worlds, and its impact on our understanding of ourselves... Read more -
We’ve Got That Yet
Evie Cahir 23 Sep - 9 Oct 2022 It summarises the feeling of swimming all summer long with goggles on, being the happiest you've ever been and expecting to get even happier. It's that joyous expectancy that's applicable to this body of work - I have distilled feelings, seasons, smells, stories, jokes and treats from the last year... Read more -
Cutback
PHIBS 26 Aug - 11 Sep 2022 Although PHIBS occasionally strays from the path in artistic directions he always returns to the graffiti/ street art culture which has become his identity, passion, love, hate, career, addiction, and obsession. Creating artwork for PHIBS is a daily activity that is a vital part of his life, just as breathing... Read more -
Colony
David Cragg 29 Jul - 14 Aug 2022 Burnouts at Summernats, heavily armoured police, feral dogs and barbed wire fences occupy sparse desert-scapes, once pristine and sacred, now treated with violent disrespect. Cragg's artwork questions the 'Australian Dream' and ideas of ownership of land, fraught since invasion. Monochromatic characters of the colony inhabit vibrant landscapes, juxtaposing the one-dimensional... Read more -
Define
Helen Gory 29 Jul - 14 Aug 2022 Pared back, the exhibition contains only six works- The Vessel, Peek A Boo, Grasp, To Lend a Hand, To Have and To Hold and Tear Drops of Blood - which have been refined and defined allegorically and metaphorically. Each artwork title is a clue to a story which, says Gory,... Read more -
Chahar Bagh
Leili Tehrani Walker 1 - 17 Jul 2022 Misplacement, or lack of belonging, is something experienced strongly by diasporic communities. Adrift, we’re perceived as too foreign for so-called Australia, and upon returning home, too westernized for our roots. Chahar Bagh is my attempt at reconciling family tales of the homeland with my childhood in the red light district... Read more -

Under Pressure
Elliott Routledge 6 - 22 May 2022 These works are a moody array of emotional responses to my own feelings of being 'Under Pressure' and my exploration in to the questions of why is it a natural response to just smile and continue to juggle everything life involves… - Elliott Routledge Read more -
Escape Plan
Kyle Hughes-Odgers 8 - 24 Apr 2022 'A field without a Fence' pictures a boundless landscape, 'We all get stuck here sometimes', a bottle full of people, confined and unable to escape, like fish in a fishbowl. These contrasting images of freedom and confinement are presented through a cohesive colour palette and a visual language of simplicity... Read more -
Paris End
Stephen Baker 11 - 27 Mar 2022 Baker's works are a triumphant expression of the fundamental design principle that simplicity is an influential factor in the language of universal visual communication. Through his process of reducing elements from his compositions to their minimum, Baker draws our attention to observable quantities in familiar scenes of our physical environment... Read more -
Happy Hour
Wona Bae & Charlie Lawler 13 - 27 Feb 2022 For Happy Hour, Bae and Lawler continue investigations of materiality and abstraction. Fascinated by the healing qualities of charcoal, the pair have created a series of charcoal sculptures and reliefs.
