Confluence | David Collins and Ana Pollak (opening event)

Opens Friday 24 July 2026 at 6pm

Where two rivers meet, there’s a mixing of the waters. They mingle, inevitably influencing each other. When two people live and work in close quarters, their qualities rub off on each other: while the individual characteristics of their work remain strong, there is a Confluence of their traits, ideas and practice. Ana Pollak and David Collins have been in a partnership for over 40 years. In their artworks, the nuanced ways of one meet and complement the boldness of the other, and vice versa.

The exhibition runs from 25 July until 13 September 2026

Precious Abundance | Mandy Francis (opening event)

Opens Friday 24 July 2026 at 6pm

Precious Abundance will bring the audience into the artist’s world, which celebrates birds and nature while recognising that abundance has its limits. In her home studio on the Central Coast of New South Wales, Mandy Francis captures fleeting thoughts and scenes, through notes and photographs, translating these into her expressive oil paintings and unique sculptural pieces. The works often unfold through experimentation with paint, colour and materials at hand, adding to a surprise element which Francis hopes can be seen in the works.

The exhibition runs from 25 July until 13 September 2026

Scale | Donna Marcus (opening event)

A survey of thirty years of practice, the exhibition traces connections between the organic, industrial, and domestic, across histories both remembered and imagined, from the miniature to the monumental. Donna Marcus’ practice repurposes sourced plastic and aluminium kitchenware such as teapots, lids, jelly moulds and steamers. Their original uses are recalled and extended by the process of assemblage, as they are combined into the repetitive forms of modernist grids and spheres. 

The exhibition runs from 5 December 2026 until 31 January 2027
