FRONT & BACK GALLERIES
SOMEWHERE BETWEEN HEAVEN AND EARTH
by Howard Kimber
CATALOGUE
In this exhibition I explore the juxtaposition of youth, aspiration and nostalgia through images of divers on high towers, a familiar motif of the Australian summer. While I aim to evoke memories of carefree days at the local pool, the paintings reach further, embodying our innate desire to reach for the heavens and sit with the gods as we try to dictate the limits of our capabilities. Yet they also remind us of our humanity—how we inevitably return to earth. Whether it’s a moment of hesitation or exhilaration, it’s a human emotion and one worth holding.

SIDE & UPSTAIRS GALLERIES
MONOMANIA
by Geoffrey Seelander
CATALOGUE
My work draws inspiration from the overlooked details of everyday life and the spaces I inhabit. I’m interested in beauty that carries a quiet sense of unease, revealing the contradictions within the ordinary. Through the use of material and process, I explore the delicate balance between order and disorder, where structure and disruption, tension and harmony, exist side by side.
