2nd - 19th May
Gallery One: Viviana Barrero - Liminal Space
Opening May 2nd from 6pm
Liminal Space is a photographic exploration of shifting landscapes in Australia. Viviana documents nature around her and what lies in between, exploring the intersection of topography and sociology. The exhibition serves to meditate upon the forces of our past and the fragility of our future.
The Canning Room: Christopher Jewitt - Contents Management
Opening May 2nd from 6pm.
Christopher Jewitt's paintings express his fixation for quotidian objects in a tempest of colour and marks. Portraying subject matter in a playful manner between abstract and figurative, his style is reminiscent of childhood notebook doodles and simple scribbles. But in the creative discord, harmony is always possible.
23rd May - 9th June
Gallery One: Elena Valimberti - Save the Ashtray
Opening May 23rd from 6pm.
Valimberti investigates themes of introspection, sensibility, the corporeal, nuance and ambiguity. In Save The Ashtray, a series of paintings are inspired by a state of reminiscence. Characterised by an uncanny quality, Valimberti's paintings are displayed with a range of objects to stage dynamic compositions of the figure.

The Canning Room: Alex Sinclair - Sensitivity
Opening May 23rd from 6pm.
Barren volcanic landscapes do not seem of this world. They can throw one into a realm devoid of comfort or familiarity, and can be the physical representation of one’s circumstances. Sensitivity investigates how journeying through these environments can unexpectedly nurture one through unsure situations.
13th - 30th June
Gallery One: Rachael Edwards - Thirteen
Opening June 13th from 6pm.
Modern disassociation with the natural world and the rituals of our ancestors can be a point of contention in contemporary western society. These works act as talismans, or visual signifiers, attempting to reconnect us to this often forgotten way of life; whilst the kitsch nature of the work reminds us not to take ourselves too seriously in the quest for spiritual utopia.
The Canning Room: Kasia Fabijanska - Dark Ink
Opening June 13th from 6pm.
Dark ink, deep shadows and negative space bind the works thematically in an intimate exhibition featuring images of trees, rock faces and forests.
