‘Ex Libris’ Christina Lowry
In Ex libris, artist Christina Lowry takes the viewer on an experimental journey as she blurs the lines between the past and future to create speculative archives. Lowry blends cabinets of curiosities, contemporary technology, as well as art historical and museological tropes to investigate our relationship with nature.
‘Riverscope’ Kuweni Dias Mendis
Riverscope explores Dugulumba (Logan River), sovereignty, and homelessness, through slow listening and reciprocal dialogue. Like the river, the process resists rigid structure, embracing ambiguity and openness. In Logan, sovereignty is found in deep acceptance; where individuality is expected, and rawness is embraced. Homelessness challenges societal discomforts, asking what radical care looks like beyond hierarchy. This exhibition invites reflection on those who walk with dignity despite being unseen, offering space for uncertainty, authenticity, and deeper connection.

William Robinson Reflections
William Robinson: Reflections explores the transformative moment when William Robinson discovered the artistic possibilities of multiple perspectives. After a typical late-afternoon Queensland storm, Robinson experienced a revelation that would forever change his approach to landscape painting. Standing before a rainwater puddle, he witnessed the night sky and moon perfectly mirrored on its surface. In this singular moment—looking down yet seeing up—Robinson realised landscape could be portrayed through simultaneous, inverted viewpoints rather than fixed linear perspective.
Reflections examines this pivotal artistic breakthrough and traces water as a recurring motif throughout Robinson's practice. From glistening creek beds to misty rainforests, the exhibition showcases how this initial moment of clarity evolved into Robinson’s distinctive vision of the Australian landscape—highlighting the vital presence of water throughout his work.
