SUMMARY:Barbara Dawson: Becoming Now
DESCRIPTION:Barbara Dawson’s work is a contemplation of senescence — ageing seen not as decline\, but as a layered experience shaped by growth\, memory\, and renewal. Using the life cycles of plants as metaphor\, she explores the human journey: its fragility\, quiet strength\, and continual transformation. These works trace the parallel landscapes of inner and outer worlds\, finding beauty in both blossoming and fading\, in change\, endurance\, and lived experience. \nThis body of work includes large charcoal drawings of plant forms\, embellished with stitched lines and suspended threads\, alongside A3 stitched photographs on silk. Some capture the soft radiance of full bloom; others\, the quiet grace of wilting forms. Textile hangings created with rice paper\, reclaimed fabrics\, printing\, and hand stitching extend these themes—exploring senescence\, regeneration\, and the emotional textures of time. \nWorking within a limited colour palette\, Dawson explores subtle tonal shifts that evoke both quietude and richness. Through layering\, drawing\, and stitching\, she seeks to express the tactile and emotional fabric of a life deeply felt and continually renewed. \nBecoming Now suggests that ageing is not an ending\, but an ongoing state of becoming — presence shaped by time\, holding both what has passed and what is still possible.

SUMMARY:Brian Hincksman: Abstract Connotations
DESCRIPTION:In Abstract Connotations\, Hincksman explores human nature and our interactions with the natural environment.\, in the face of rapid changes due to the advancement of technology and social change. \nHicksman’s practice allows the simplicity of everyday thoughts and experiences to inspire the paintings. The process can be quite dynamic between contemplation and the use of colour\, form and tone\, along with the fluidity of paint with various forms of mark making. \nThe intent of the exhibition is to inspire respect for our common humanity and further explore our capacity to relate to one another. Secondly\, to explore the beauty and the power of our natural environment. Hicksman’s vivid canvasses imagine ways of living harmoniously with each other\, amongst our own creations\, in the awe-inspiring natural environment we inhabit.

SUMMARY:Steve Roper: Works
DESCRIPTION:Focussing on line rather than tone\, this exhibition features drawings on paper in a variety of media including pencil\, crayons\, ink\, and watercolour. These are not necessarily drawings of things; they are abstract works but may evoke subjects. As clay dries\, it hardens\, and each stage creates a different engagement with the drawing process. \nRoper says\, “Line drawing has been much on my mind of late as it is likely to be affected by Parkinson’s\, which I have had for some time. It’s a shrinking condition. You keep making smaller movements\, but they look perfectly fine to you. \nIn painting\, line gives way to masses of colour. At school\, I was drawn to Matisse’s colour and De Kooning’s techniques. There is a directness that I find very appealing. My take on that is to build up layers of colour and line. Of course\, if you keep building up lines\, they start to disintegrate into shapes. \nFor me\, the appeal of abstract art\, when it works\, is that it gives anyone the opportunity to experience it and work out what they make of it.”

SUMMARY:Group exhibition: Stormy Weather
DESCRIPTION:A group exhibition that invites us to look toward the soaring skies above. \nWhile Western Australia is well known for its vast blue horizons\, this exhibition turns to the darker moments – luminous clouds thickening\, rain pending\, storms breaking without warning. Across painting\, drawing\, sculpture\, photography and video\, the artists consider the unfolding drama of shifting weather patterns and the moods they carry with them.

SUMMARY:Melody Popple: Balun Gawarima – River Story
DESCRIPTION:Balun Gawarima – River Story is a new exhibition by Indigenous artist Melody Popple\, developed through her PhD project Moving Through Waters. Grounded in the waterways of Bundjalung Jagun\, the exhibition explores the cultural\, emotional\, and ecological significance of water through bush dyeing\, natural pigments\, and visual story-mapping. \nCreated in collaboration with Country\, the works use native flora\, found materials\, and water gathered from local river systems to produce richly layered eco-printed textiles that carry the physical imprint of place. Water becomes both subject and collaborator – activating pigments\, shaping form\, and holding memory. \nResponding to the realities of a post-flood Bundjalung landscape\, the exhibition reflects on water as a force of both destruction and renewal. Through acts of returning\, listening\, gathering\, and making\, Popple’s practice becomes an offering back to Country – honouring connection\, healing\, reciprocity\, and the enduring stories carried by river systems.

SUMMARY:Jessie French: Material Conditions: Systems Beneath Surfaces
DESCRIPTION:Jessie French’s exhibition\, Material Conditions: Systems Beneath Surfaces\, examines the industrial systems embedded within the materials that shape our inhabited spaces and their resultant environmental and ethical consequences. \nEstablished systems\, optimised for efficiency\, low cost\, and standardisation\, dictate how physical resources are produced\, circulated\, and utilised in our daily environments. Many of these materials rely on chemical additives including binders\, stabilisers and coatings to enable their rapid manufacturing. While engineered for efficiency and durability\, these materials are often impossible to repair or reintegrate into recycling or reuse cycles once they degrade. Over time\, these industrial systems have normalised the widespread use of materials that compromise human health and ecological stability. \nIn an era defined by environmental crisis and geopolitical tension over natural resources\, French positions material design as a critical cultural and environmental inquiry. By presenting functional materials as cultural artifacts\, Material Conditions invites us to look beyond the surface and consider the infrastructures\, responsibilities\, and possibilities embedded within the substances that surround us. \nThis project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Creative Australia\, its principal arts investment and advisory body.

SUMMARY:VARANASI - Gateway to Heaven
DESCRIPTION:These images in this photographic exhibition are a personal chronicle for Marc Baptista\, an artist and filmmaker – an exploration and rediscovery of his origins through this project on the soul of the ancient city of Varanasi (Benares). \nIn this oldest inhabited city\, these images distills his journey\, capturing the ancient and multi-layered city that breathes in contradictions – where the sacred and the profane\, the eternal and the immediate exist in a tight embrace. \n Though he was born in Bombay (now Mumbai)\, much of his adult life unfolded overseas\, and now settled in Melbourne\, Australia.  His early experiences were travelling through India alongside his documentary filmmaker father which offered him a unique and objective perspective to observe and explore. He learnt to appreciate the enigma and the wonder of India. Of all the many locations he visited\, Varanasi (Benares) left him with an indelible impression. \nReturning after nearly five decades\, he found the contradiction of a landscape transformed yet unchanged\, a paradox of time – mystifying and intense. \nThese images of Varanasi reflect his own exploration – unscripted\, instinctual\, deeply felt. At every turn he was exposed to the intense devotion\, rituals\, and a spiritual fervour within this ancient city that was overwhelming. \nIn trying to capture the city and its inhabitants – Marc wanted to depict its raw beauty but also its intangible essence – the pulse of life\, the weight of history\, the endurance of the human spirit. He tried to avoid the clichés of poverty and to just observe. Each frame told him a story – a testament to devotion\, to impermanence\, to the profound dance of life and loss …and confronting mortality. And he also got to embrace his own discovery.
