CURRENT Exhibitions
Kaleidoscope III | Celebrating LGBTQIA+ pride
In its third year, Kaleidoscope III is an open exhibition where LGBTQIA+ artists in Canberra and Australia-wide can express their experiences of queerness, sexuality, gender, and unique individuality through art.
Poetry of the Lakes | Dianne Firth
Firth invited poets associated with the Centre for Creative and Cultural Research at the University of Canberra to write about these lakes. Firth then used these poems as both inspiration and brief to create the textile works for this exhibition.
Threads and Traces | Lea Durie
Threads and Traces takes us on a journey through a place we know, on Ngunnawal and Ngambri Country, through the suburbs of Canberra. It explores this through the deep time materiality of wild clay.
Fortress | Justin Wasserman
This work presents a series of imagined fortresses. In different contexts the fortress is either a prison or a place of refuge. The fortress offers protection and security but is also a symbol of oppression or punishment.
Maker Spotlight: Akela Bones
