SUMMARY:Kerry McInnis & Mike MacGregor: Of Ravens and Rivers
DESCRIPTION:Kerry McInnis has been painting and drawing the River for many decades. The focus of her renditions of a waterway\, wet or dry\, has always been to represent the interconnectedness between the river and the earth that shapes it – to investigate the rhythms of liquid and solid form\, to layer in paint the inconstancy of the river in both its power and vulnerability. Moving away from direct representation\, Kerry’s recent work explores the idea of the river as a conduit of life\, a metaphor of survival. \nMike MacGregor’s sculptural oeuvre has had\, as its primary theme\, the interaction of man and nature. In his recent work\, Mike has juxtaposed the forms of Man and the Raven\, illustrating what is\, between the two\, a remarkable connection\, both physical and spiritual. In this exhibition\, Mike’s drawings and sculptures take a deeper look into the Raven’s being. Years of observation of the movements\, antics\, and posture of this bird will become the reference material for this sculptor’s work at the forge.

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:Kate Shaw: Divine Matrix
DESCRIPTION:In her latest exhibition\, Divine Matrix at Olsen Gallery (Sydney)\, Shaw expands her vision beyond landscape to articulate a concept rooted in unity and interconnection. The divine matrix — a metaphor for the unseen forces that connect all life — pulsates through her compositions\, expressing how nature’s patterns\, rhythms\, and energies mirror our own inner landscapes. Through luminous surfaces and swirling forms\, Shaw’s work gestures toward the sacred interconnectedness of ecosystems and the profound beauty that emerges when we recognise ourselves as part of a living\, evolving whole.

SUMMARY:Jenny Topfer
DESCRIPTION:Jenny Topfer makes paintings that operate in a world of whispers and patient disclosure. Their communicative intent is held — undemonstrative. Such discretion remains rare but for Topfer\, consideration and judgement have quietly accumulated over a long arc of time. \nThere is simultaneously much more and much less at stake in these recent paintings. Made on either side of calamitous fires in Tasmania\, fire that took many of the works and very nearly her home\, these paintings can’t help but infer something of the risk and transience that accompanies making a painting. \nBeneath their tenacious surfaces lies a web of orienteering gestures\, looping calligraphies that are more about personal ceremony and establishing her own physiological cadence than being a dominant substrate to the paintings. They anchor the body of the painting philosophically more than architecturally. In a sense they become fugitive\, subsumed by a newer more robust approach to material. Vestiges of the earlier calligraphy occasionally remain visible as the edges of the canvas — as if the pigment has retreated in a seasonal thaw. \nLook closely at the surfaces and you can sense something of their construction as pigments rasp and abrade over an ever-developing body. You can almost hear the pigment\, feel its advance\, witness its progress as it colludes with the linen. This exchange between energy\, material and support is at the heart of Topfer’s work. My repeated analogies to weather systems\, to the hushed environment they inhabit is simply an attempt to apprehend them assisted by allegory. Truth is that all they ask of you to look as if you were listening — with a little patience and composure.

SUMMARY:Elle Wickens: Skin After Successive Skin
DESCRIPTION:Skin after Successive Skin is born of a story of feminine transformation\, rebirth and embodiment; a story that led Elle Wickens to imagine how they felt language of the body can be recorded through material\, how sensation can paint\, and how painting itself speaks of\, from and to the body. \nIn this exhibition\, Wickens creates an environment that echoes her own sensory tones\, a space where interpretation is embodied\, co-produced\, and where multiple possibilities occur at once. Here\, painting and installation are modes of communicating body to body. Through a considered material approach\, painting becomes a layered sensorial language that Wickens employs to both process and communicate her being to the world. \nSkin After Successive Skin explores the transference between artwork and audience; where the experience of an image or material can converge or depart from that of another\, and where both artist and audience can explore their sensory experiences of the world together.

SUMMARY:Timothy Cook: Parlingarri Jilamara
DESCRIPTION:Alcaston Gallery presents a significant private collection of paintings from 2003-2007 by the esteemed Tiwi artist Timothy Cook. \nThis collection of historical significance and provenance exemplifies a moment in time when the collector focused on the emerging artist and his career development at Jilamara Arts and Crafts in Milikapiti on Melville Island\, north of Darwin in the Arafura Sea. \nTimothy Cook’s art practice is now celebrated worldwide by his distinctive and highly contemporary interpretations of parlingarri jilamara (‘old Tiwi designs’). \nAlcaston Gallery has represented and exhibited many artists from Jilamara Art and Crafts since their inception.

SUMMARY:Michelle Anderson: Kanpala
DESCRIPTION:Michelle Anderson‘s Kanpala\, presented in association with Spinifex Arts Project\, brings together a new suite of paintings that depict her grandmother’s Country at Kanpa. \n“The old people would walk from rockhole to rockhole\, collecting wild foods on the way. They knew the bush plants that were good to eat\, how to make flour by grinding the small millet seeds they collected and then baking bread on the fire. They knew the special plants for medicine. This country is good country.” — Michelle Anderson.

SUMMARY:Kent Morris: FLOWER POWER
DESCRIPTION:Barkindji artist\, Kent Morris\, creates a new series of works starring a very small yellow flower with an incredibly powerful story. \nFor thousands of years\, the tubers of the murnong (yam daisy) were a staple food for First Peoples throughout the southeast of Australia\, cultivated and harvested in the millions from abundant yellow fields. Following the forced introduction of European farming practices\, the murnong almost became extinct and remains critically endangered and rare in the wild. \nNow the plants flower symbolises survival\, resilience and cultural reclamation in the face of ongoing colonial impacts. FLOWER POWER features murnong flowers and cultural designs created from the wind on water\, both generated from photographs taken over many years. The source murnong photographs are of plants Morris has grown in his apartment car park. The photographs of the wind on water were taken at the Menindee Lakes on Barkindji Country. Murnongs grew along the banks of the Barka (Darling River) and prior to colonisation\, were a significant food source for Barkindji people. \nThe works act as portals for reflection and engagement with the significance of this plant and the ecologies of Country. FLOWER POWER reconsiders the fields of yellow that were once across this continent’s southeast\, and the murnongs ongoing importance to First Peoples’ knowledge—a symbol of the power of resistance and cultural continuance. Flowers are utilised to celebrate\, to congratulate\, to mourn\, to express love and care\, and also to express peaceful resistance to injustice. \nThe new photographic series coupled with an immersive walk thorough structure at Melbourne’s City Square commissioned for RISING 2O26\, represents First Peoples sustainable agricultural practices over thousands of years. The forms symbolise generations of connection to Country\, the impacts of colonisation and the survival and revival of Indigenous languages and native food sources.

SUMMARY:Lottie Consalvo: Of the Night
DESCRIPTION:“Lottie Consalvo’s exhibition\, Of the Night\, is an invitation to cross between worlds. It is in the night\, where the air has a different texture\, one Consalvo says she can touch\, that the space between the world we inhabit day-to-day and the spiritual world blurs. Her paintings animate that precipice and what lives beyond it — the effigy you reach for in the dark\, the blurred image that disappears\, the sound you pretend you didn’t hear. These are Consalvo’s friends.” \n— Ariela Bard\, May 2026.

SUMMARY:Ara Dolatian: In Between Forms
DESCRIPTION:THIS IS NO FANTASY presents In Between Forms\, the first solo exhibition by Ara Dolatian since joining the gallery. The exhibition explores unstable states between human\, animal and the monstrous\, drawing on Mesopotamian female deities\, queens and poetic traditions — particularly the voice of Enheduanna and The Exaltation of Inanna. Through sculpture\, Dolatian reimagines ancient acts of invocation as contemporary forms of transformation. \nInfluenced by feminist and queer readings of Mesopotamian history\, the works consider the body as fluid\, relational and continually shifting across gender\, species and time. Horned figures\, inspired by ancient symbols of divinity\, emerge as sacred yet otherworldly presences\, resisting fixed identity and patriarchal systems of power. \nPresented in a restrained palette of white and gold\, the sculptures oscillate between archaeological relic and living body\, holding tension between ruin and elevation\, absence and presence\, while transformation remains ongoing and unresolved.

SUMMARY:Grace Wood: Petal as Pixel
DESCRIPTION:Petal as Pixel draws on an enduring fascination with Lawrence Alma-Tadema’s The Roses of Heliogabalus (1888)\, reimagining its themes of seduction\, excess\, and latent violence through a contemporary lens. Comprising over 80 works\, the exhibition centres on a large suspended mobile of mirrored surfaces\, chains\, and collaged imagery\, precariously assembled in situ. As elements shift\, reflections fragment and multiply\, enveloping the viewer in a disorienting visual field.

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:Shedding
DESCRIPTION:After a long silence\, Nomads Collective returns with Shedding.\nA one-night art experience inside Machine Hall\, opening a conversation between tradition and contemporary art expressions. \nSet within a former power substation\, the event is amplified by the building itself: its history\, its industrial weight\, and the charge of a place once built to power the city. \nBuilt through performance\, music\, installation\, and visual work\, Shedding brings together artists drawn to experimentation\, enquiry\, transformation\, and release. \nAcross the night\, artists move through questions of exposure\, distortion\, memory and the surfaces we carry. At a time when the self is constantly watched\, performed\, and repeated\, Shedding looks toward what sits underneath. We circle the moment where something starts to give. \nLineup TBA.

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.
