Upcoming events

A Flaw in the Dance - Rick Ball

24 September 2023

"This is an exhibition with a simple idea. All the works have been selected from the twenty-one years of living in this arid zone, based in Broken Hill. Included are drawings, paintings and sculpture, which for me are closely interrelated. The old desert has permeated the work over this time in unforeseeable ways, shaping my thoughts about nearly everything." - Rick Ball

Collateral Veins - Alexandra Rosenblum

24 September 2023

As the granddaughter of a Holocaust survivor, Rosenblum traces how trauma has been passed through her paternal line over generations. Understanding intergenerational trauma as lodged in our bodies and bequeathed to us through our very DNA, this
new series of work quite literally unravels the bind of trauma – investigating the healing power of movement and artmaking.
