Gallery 2

Raph James – KALEIDOSCOPE: A Million Forms of You
Raph James

Raph James creates abstract paintings shaped by line, colour, and small moments of feeling. Based in Naarm (Melbourne), her work holds fragments of personal experience — quiet pauses, bursts of emotion, and things that resist easy language. Deliberate and restrained in form, yet deeply personal in meaning, her paintings invite viewers to slow down, look closely, and engage on an emotional level.

Gallery 3

Bonnie-Jean Whitlock – Hungry I’ve Fallen
Bonnie-jean whitlock

Bonnie-Jean Whitlock is a surrealist painter whose work considers catastrophe, longing, and the tactile body. Working across painting and textile installation, bonnie works on bedsheets and linen using dyeing and staining processes incorporating salt and wax.

Gallery 4

olive bly – beached in the whale belly
olive bly

olive bly sees her works as diagrams, using form and colour to explore multiplicity, contradiction, and the connections between dream-logic and waking life. Working with recycled, found and secondhand materials, she also explores more sustainable modes of creation.

Final week to experience Francesca Pezzimenti- Love and Desire
Francesca Pezzimenti

Installation views from G4

Inspired by the visual language of 1950s and 1960s poster art, Francesca Pezzimenti explores love, desire and emotional intimacy through figurative painting.

Her works draw on the glamour, confidence and sensuality of the era, capturing moments of attraction through expressive figures, intimate gestures and encounters. Rich colour and dynamic compositions heighten the sense of romantic tension, while glances, poses and the spaces between figures suggest stories that extend beyond the canvas.

Together, the works explore the magnetic pull between people and the subtle, often unspoken emotions that shape our experiences of love and desire.

On view until 30 Aug.

Installation views from G3

What happens to music after the sound has disappeared?

In Thin Places, Barton Price brings music into the visual world, transforming notation, lyrics and fragments of musical memory into paintings.

Layered across found and inherited canvases, these traces of sound, image and material explore how music connects us to memories, people and places.

Final week to experience Linda Marie - Haptic Elements
Linda Marie

Installation views from G2

Moving between abstraction and recognisable organic forms, Linda Marie’s works invite us to look closely at the structures, textures and rhythms of the natural world. Her paintings blur the boundaries between observation and imagination, revealing nature as something at once familiar, strange and deeply interconnected.

Robyn Blaikie Gloria Li Steven Hall Nick Delaney

Bringing together four distinct perspectives on the city, Celebration of Urban Living traces the shifting rhythms of urban experience — from moments of quiet observation to movement, nightlife and human connection. Together, the works reveal the city not simply as a physical environment, but as a lived space shaped by encounters, atmosphere and everyday experience.
