LAURENCE NOGA - POETICS OF OBSOLESCENCE
Text by Kamini Vellodi
6 Jun - 30 Aug 2021 Laurence Noga: Poetics of Obsolescence - 'These found signs without provenance function as humble, anachronic portals to other times. Collected from the artist’s father’s garage, they are fragmented mementos revealing the constructions as stratigraphic layerings of time. Vestiges of things that may once have moved but are now arrested, of anonymous processes and operative systems no longer in use, they reveal the obsolete as registration of the cessation of time’s continuity.' ~ Kamini Vellodi

TESS WILLIAMS - Sirens
Curated by Vivienne Roberts 16 - 31 Mar 2020 ‘Through a mastery of surface and composition, Williams’ painting imaginatively balances idioms from mid-century abstraction with contemporary urban references and the mark of the artist in the atelier. This virtuosic use of tone, texture and a sculptural sensibility of canvas, colour and form make Williams’ work a significant contribution to twenty-first century artistic reimagining of the tenets of abstraction.’

Enzo Marra - Deluge
Curated by Vivienne Roberts 1 - 15 Mar 2020 The quirky world of Enzo Marra. His comic imagery is reminiscent of Philip Guston’s post-war work, and the predicaments of his characters conjure up Samuel Beckett’s ‘pre-occupation with memory and its effect on the confined and observed self, as well as with the positioning of bodies in space’.
