Event Details
The next season of exhibitions showcase our selection from the 2025 call for entries with emerging and local artists featured throughout the gallery spaces as part of our annual programming for Platform Projects.
‘we/us/theirs/all’ is a major solo exhibition of new works by Murri artist Norton Fredericks that confronts our current epoch of catastrophe.
‘Alas-alasan’ is an exhibition of new textiles and sculptures by Naarm-based artist Leo Bagus Purnomo, featuring traditional batik motifs of animals and plants, where the forest symbolises a liminal place between the earth and gunung (or ‘mountain’) that is symbolic of heaven.
‘Tending the Invasion’ is a photographic installation by artist Angus Scott, who addresses blackberry (Rubus fruticosus) as a site of ecological, colonial, and personal entanglement.
The exhibitions are now open until Sunday, 13 June.
