Gallery 1 
AMANDA PAGE
'Falling Away'

Amanda Page creates works about transformation, in capturing and recording changes of state in materials and processes. While the works reference ecology and climate and can be positioned within the framework of environmental art, they also reference change as a universal condition that connects all matter. Works develop from observing transformative processes in natural systems and phenomena, such as weather patterns, temperature, erosion, the interaction between organisms, metamorphosis, growth, and decay, where organic substances break down into simpler forms of matter, and how matter and energy change under varying circumstances. Casts of eroded housing stumps shown in stages of decay capture their disintegrating structure as they are eroded by elemental forces of water, compressed earth and time.

Projection Room 
MARCUS ENCEL
'The Demagogue'

An exploration of oration and demagoguery; the extension of power remotely as expressed through digital media.
Using video montage to create the hybrid character of a totalitarian demagogue using documentation of artists.

Gallery 2
JULIAN DI MARTINO
'In Otherwords'

In other words, presents almost exactly one year of sculptures by Julian Di Martino. The sculptures range from bowls of fruit to broken bollards. Found wood continues to be the primary medium used, but in a series of perhaps ten works showing tumbled street signs, broken bollards, and damaged safety barriers, concrete has been added to the mix.

Gallery 3
KERRIE WARREN
'The Last Supper'

A poetic composition that plays with the idea of ‘The Last Supper,’ in this case the final meal is provided by and shared with Mother Nature who plays a starring role at the table...
Elements of the installation include paintings on linen, wheel-thrown ceramics, artist-designed wallpaper, inherited items, the found and the ready-made. An intuitive and sensitive approach to a widely popular and controversial subject.
This complex composition evokes a sense of pause, and the spectator is invited in to experience (and thereby be part of) life’s delicate balance, its vulnerable fragility, and sublime impermanence.
