Exhibitions

Featherbed

Morgan Blue 13 - 31 Dec 2024 Featherbed is wilfully and gleefully corny. Corny like a field of wildflowers is corny, corny like a cloudless night sky is corny, corny like flying a kite is corny. Featherbed abandons any inclination for posturing and submits to something honeyed. Sentiment is abundant, constraint absent. Here, cars race atop the... Read more

Nature of Nature

Mike Makatron 15 Nov - 8 Dec 2024 I am constantly captivated by the complexity of this duality, and it forces me to approach nature with an equal measure of fear and reverence. There is a unique wonder that can only be experienced standing at the summit of the highest peak, but a foot wrong on your descent... Read more

In The Exhale of One You Are Found

Maya Irving 18 Oct - 10 Nov 2024 Blindfolded, embodied mark-making anchors my art practice. All art is intuitive, yet I have found this method more directly channels and celebrates my own intuition-as patternmaker; as energy; as refuge; as healer. If my art constitutes part of an attempt to process trauma, it rests on the belief that intuition... Read more

Where Ends Meet

Michael Fikaris 30 Aug - 15 Sep 2024 At one end lies the human capacity for collaboration-for building, dismantling, and rebuilding together. At the other, the relentless demands of capitalism, rooted in the pursuit of unending profit. Where Ends Meet explores the tensions between these poles, offering a visual meditation on the space that exists in between. These... Read more

Clay & Me

Masatomo Toi 9 - 25 Aug 2024 Masatomo Toi's art is deeply captivated by the softness and imperfection of clay as a material. At the core of his work lies an expression of the inner self and a cathartic process of deep introspection, realized through tactile engagement with the material and the creation of form. The softness,... Read more

Everyday

George Goodnow 28 Jun - 28 Jul 2024 Everyday is an exhibition of works celebrating seemingly small, mundane moments as significant. Through painting and sculpture, the works catalogue objects, architecture, materials and memories to explore the slippery relationships between built environments, the bodily and the emotional. Larger narratives are contained within smaller occurrences, signs and residue. Soft, wet,... Read more

Way/Find

Ellie Hannon 28 Jun - 28 Jul 2024 Way / Find presents a personal archive of impressions, investigating the thinking rhythms of walking and drawing. In this series, the material process of drawing mirrors movement through place and a quiet introspection. Rivers, tracks and paths of light oscillate between finding and feeling, sensing and seeing, moving and mark-making.... Read more

I Take Time and Time Nestles Onto My Hip Gladly Like a Tired Child

Pia Gynell-Jorgensen 31 May - 16 Jun 2024 In my studio, I loosen my grasp on time, or time loosens its grasp on me. I've since noticed a more defined pattern in my abstract painting practice - a little push and pull between technical knowledge and a child-like eagerness to play. I seem to, during the progression of... Read more

Confusing a Mirror For a Window

Kyle Hughes-Odgers 10 - 26 May 2024 The focus of my artwork has always been on the shared ideas of universal connection, exploring and portraying both our failures and successes. This approach has led to a blend of planned concepts and subconscious responses in my paintings. For this show, I treated the artwork as a single cohesive... Read more

Strange Makeup

Elliott Routledge 10 - 26 May 2024 Strange Makeup is a collection of works on wood that blur the line between sculpture and painting. Utilising simple building materials such as wood, limestone, polymer and paint, Routledge creates these three-dimensional works to capture a sense of deformity and tension. The symbolism of the smiley face has become even... Read more

Floriana

James Reka 19 Apr - 5 May 2024 Using canvas and ceramic media, I have sought to reflect the inspiration of living on the ancient Mediterranean Sea - the cradle of civilisation – itself a symbol of energy, creativity and of the search for the meaning of life, for wisdom and the love of family. This exhibition documents... Read more

Broken Fingaz

25 Mar - 28 Apr 2024 Read more

B-Side

Mudo & Skola 22 Mar - 7 Apr 2024 The exhibition features paintings on canvas, lenticular pieces, graffiti interventions and merchandising that includes posters, zines and T-shirts. Their iconic style is on full display through artworks of b-boy characters, 90's cartoons, throw-up graffiti, tattoo flash and toy sculptures. Skola and Mudo search for different means of expressing their art... Read more

Eastbound

Curated by Dave Court 22 Mar - 7 Apr 2024 This was a fun time, a great party and I think a good snapshot of the sections of South Australia’s visual arts that I’m connected to. For the sequel to this exhibition, I wanted to bring together a tighter and more cohesive collection of artworks. Part of this was also... Read more

Brothers & Sisters

Josh Robbins 1 - 17 Mar 2024 This body of work explores the idea of ‘natural abstraction’ and is somewhat of a challenge to the history and contrived nature of still life painting through the use of experimental drawing techniques to distort and abstract the content of the still life. It also explores the relationships that occur... Read more

Muscle Man

Lotte Frances 1 - 17 Mar 2024 This body of work explores the concept of body dysmorphia to masculinity, emphasizing the constant fluctuation of emotions through bodily marks and visceral materials. Abstracted silhouettes and flesh-like forms examine the mixed feelings within my own body, while also celebrating and embracing the multifaceted nature of transgender identity. Each work...

There Will Be No Flowers

Baxter 23 - 25 Feb 2024 Baxter was heavily inspired by the accumulation of intentional and unintentional marks that public-facing surfaces collect over time. Through a mixture of decay and vandalism, Baxter used this as an inspirational starting point to create a body of work that takes these seemingly disparate elements and recontextualizes them into contemporary...
