I Know My Age and I Act Like It

Up and coming glass artist Louis Grant creates minimalist sculpture that takes contemporary glass into the realm of colour-field installation. His work investigates queer identity through the medium of glass, while interrogating notions of gendered practice.

Sitting Standing Turning

Robbie Karmel, Untitled, etching on hahnemühle (detail), 30.5 x 41.5cm.

Sitting Standing Turning presents an eclectic range of work from the breadth of Robbie Karmel’s practice, including drawing, handmade furniture, printmaking, and performance. He pushes traditional mark making to its boundaries by creating works collaboratively during performances using hand-crafted wooden objects.

ABODE

The three ABODE artists focus on dwellings; how and where people live, either by choice, through design or due to circumstance. How are feelings of security associated with “home” affected by change, transience, or the need to improvise shelter? ABODE includes sculpture, video and installation.
