Brisbane-based Phillip Piperides’ new body of sculptural works is imbued with his abiding interest in Greek mythology and philosophical musings. A career spanning four decades has fostered ruminations upon the passage of time and how to render such into tangible presence. The exhibition displays a number of the graceful female forms for which Piperides is […]
As do photographs, Sophie Gralton’s recent paintings capture significant moments. However, ‘snap shot’ static representations they are not, photographic realism is totally eschewed. Sydney-based Gralton’s focus lies in the interaction between image and medium. She wants us to respond not solely to the subject matter but also to the aesthetic and metaphoric signals a painting […]
Jamie Boyd’s present works communicate a thoroughly immersive engagement with the landscape. Although now based in London, he regularly returns to the Shoalhaven River area in SE New South Wales. It was here that his father Arthur acquired the Riverdale and Bundanon properties in the 1970s. They were subsequently gifted to the Australian people for […]
As in previous bodies of work, Elaine Green’s new paintings emanate a metaphysical sensibility. Each landscape may be understood as the extension of an inner sense of being, or place where Nature and Self are fused. The imagery projects a profound quietude that encourages a state of reflection. “My interest lies in the fleeting nature […]

There is an understanding that life’s cycles will in due course bring a return to the colours of joy. The exhibition’s title, How the Light Gets In, is derived from […]
The underlying theme in Robert Ryan’s paintings has essentially always been about a relationship to one’s surroundings and situation. In mid 2018, he made the decision to leave the now ever bustling, upmarket Byron environ and relocate to Tasmania’s relatively isolated northeast coast. Its remoteness subsequently proved a boon when pandemic circumstances mandated isolation Australia […]
The imagery in Steve Tyerman’s current body of work again expresses his multi-faceted response to the coastal regions of Southern Queensland and Northern NSW. He understands the appeal of being at a seaside locale has, for not only most ‘Aussies’, but humankind in general. “A feeling of connection and sense of release occurs when sitting […]
Describing the imagery that populates his current solo show with Anthea Polson Art, Dean Bowen imparts, “The feathered characters in my avian theatre have players who engage and interact with them. Ladybird armies seem to make regular appearances – are they friends or perhaps dinner for their feathered companions? Echidnas (another of my favorite totems) […]
