UPCOMING EXHIBITIONS
11 – 22 September 2023
Celebration: Thursday 14 September 5-7pm
ENTRANCE GALLERY
NABIS2K
Jessie Smith (curator), Sophie Tanner, Phoebe Haig, and Grace Chandler

NABIS2K is an exhibition of contemporary painters whose work addresses age-old themes of decoration, ornamentation, and domestic space with a modern perspective and palette. Like the original Nabis group, these artists use painting as a means of depicting, distorting, and disrupting the distinction between fine art and ‘everyday’ design.

VCA Graduate Residency and Exhibition Award
Jordan Koudmani

Jordan Koudmani’s practice revolves around the construction of sound-based sculptures, stringing together derelict materials and analogue media. These works often use minimal sounds, implicating silence as a vital aspect of the space in order to direct attention to the often-ignored ambience of the room and its exterior. Koudmani is continually intrigued by the dynamics of repetition and irregularity.

The Artist’s Eye
James Farrar, Christy Chudosnik, Gretta Wallaby-Crayfish Miller, Indi Meara, Vasilika Tsingos, and Wylie Siassios
Curated by Patricia Agus

This exhibition is closely inspired by the essays in John Berger’s book ‘Ways of Seeing’. How we see and interpret the world and how we live in it will influence our work and practice in some way. The way we see as artists is different to those outside of our world, yet it is a crucial process in artmaking. I want to present the audience with a glimpse of an artist’s mind, how we think, how we see the world and how we see the materials around us.

Enter an entertainment room on the spectrum of dystopia and mania...
MAIN GALLERY
Shimmer(ing)
Cait Foord, Marli Maddison, Isaac Glenwright, Stacee Collee, Lilly Skipper, and Matt M Benjamin

Shimmer(ing) approaches phenomena by way of embodiment.
The feeling of light shimmering atop a reflective surface; shimmering; visual onomatopoeia; a verbal designation that captures the quality of something intangible - a sonic photocopy of a silent event, a visual representation of something invisible, something there but not there.

Le Lendemain, in French, means the day after.
