Exhibition Schedule, 2025


Amy Wright ‘Sunbleached Eden’

From 5 June, 2025

In Sunbleached Eden, Amy Wright explores the tension between fragility and endurance in landscapes shaped by heat, scarcity, and improvisation; gardens caught in the in-between, both dying and blooming, suspended in the shimmering stillness of high sun.

Sunbleached Eden is an ode to what’s often overlooked: the tenacious, improvised beauty of survival; gardens that persist in silence, halfway between life and loss, holding their place beneath an unforgiving sun.


Paige Northwood and Skye Jamieson ‘promise paintings’

From May 23, 2025

‘promise paintings’ is a collaborative exhibition by Skye Jamieson and Paige Northwood, exploring movement, mark making, and the quiet complexities of relationship.

Rooted in embodied practice, the works speak to connection—between the artists, materials, and the viewer—and the subtle conversations that unfold through paint.


Michelle Wilkin ‘SALT’

From 10 July, 2025

“Inspired by the call of the coast, this series explores our deep, instinctive connection to the sea – its rhythms, its energy, and its calming stillness. Like the sea, each piece captures a fleeting moment – here one second, washed over the next. A visual journal of life's ebbs and flows: the calm before the storm, and the quiet wisdom that follows.”


Ming Nomchong ‘Sea Foam In My Eyes’ — From 1 July, 2025

Ming’s latest body of work explores the delicate interplay between the minute and the monumental elements of our oceanic environments.

Nomchong turns her gaze to the hypnotic language of tides and textures; sea creatures, velvet currents, blurred reflections, human form.


Miranda Hampson ‘Cultural Flows’

From February 17, 2025

“I am of Aboriginal descent (Anaiwan). I am the great-granddaughter of Joan Jones (nee Richardson), whose mother was Annie Murray, an Aboriginal woman born at Nundle, NSW. I am recognised as part of the Aboriginal community at Uralla (oorala - meeting place/camp - where people come together). My totem is the echidna. I am currently practicing on Dharawal Country.”


Sarah Darling First Release of 2025 Works

From March 19, 2025

Darling’s painting practice involves working with colour and abstract forms, often in large scale works. She creates intuitively and her projects are often material-led. They are as much about process as they are about outside inspiration.
