Our current show PIVOT II is the second iteration

Our current show PIVOT II is the second iteration of PIVOT – a group exhibition dedicated to the exploration of the ‘artist book’. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
PIVOT II sees a focus on the complexities surrounding where 2D works stops and 3D forms begin. Viewers explore this oscilation across an array of practices and mediums as PIVOT aims to investigate this ‘hinge’, which shifts an artist’s work from an unencumbered public encounter, to a more intimate insight into their practice.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The show is on show till 31 July. Come visit us during our gallery hours to take a peek!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Flashback to represented artists Tamika Grant Iram

Flashback to represented artists Tamika Grant Iramu, Nicola Scott and Zoe Porter’s involvement in RMXTV at The Museum of Brisbane as a part of the Brisbane Art and Design Festival (BAD).

The initiative saw a curated selection of 20 artists painting on a large-scale purpose-built environment at the Museum of Brisbane. Each participant worked alone or in small groups in the gallery and followed a series of prompts over the course of four hours. The space evolved throughout May with each participant’s work layering over the last, creating an ever-changing collaborative work.

Onespace Gallery is excited to announce the launch

Onespace Gallery is excited to announce the launch of Hi Vis Fumes, a solo exhibition running from 6 August – 4 September by Brisbane based, multidisciplinary artist, James Hornsby. Hornsby’s work has been described as explosive, bold, hyper-real, unhinged. He wrangles the frenetic energy of digital experience into sophisticated visual forms. Hornsby is known for pushing boundaries, dismantling traditional photographic techniques in order to depict the unnerving effects of technology and the chaos of contemporary life.

Hornsby is inviting us to go to seed. His images are wild and unpredictable, shaped by a frenetic energy which, perhaps counterintuitively, offer us a strange declaration of hope; a willingness to embrace chaos and resist passivity. Hornsby’s work suggests that, despite our natural inclination for control and certainty, it mightn’t hurt to loosen our grip on the wheel, face the fear square on, and roll with the punches a bit. The only way out is in!

This NADOC week Onespace Gallery would like to hig

This NADOC week Onespace Gallery would like to highlight the four talented indigenous women included in our current group exhibition PIVOT II. Carol McGregor (Wadawurrung (Kulin Nation), and Scottish heritage), Jenna Lee (Larrakia, Wardaman, and Karajarri), Jody Rallah (Biri Gubba, Yuggera and Warangu) & Kyra Mancktelow (Ngugi, Nunukul and Mardigan) all embody this year’s theme ‘Heal Country!’ in their artistic practices and beyond. The theme calls for all of us to continue to seek greater protections for Indigenous lands, waters, sacred sites and cultural heritage from exploitation, desecration, and destruction.

‘NAIDOC 2021 invites the nation to embrace First Nations’ cultural knowledge and understanding of Country as part of Australia's national heritage and equally respect the culture and values of Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islanders as they do the cultures and values of all Australians.’

NAIDOC Week 2021 will be held from Sunday 4 July to Sunday 11 July.

Onespace Gallery is delighted to congratulate Elis

Onespace Gallery is delighted to congratulate Elisa Jane (Leecee) Carmichael as one of five artists included in this year’s Primavera 2021: Young Australian Artists exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Melbourne-based First Nations curator, Hannah Presley, has selected a highly impressive group for Primavera 2021 comprising: Elisa Jane Carmichael (QLD), Dean Cross (NSW), Hannah Gartside (VIC), Sam Gold (SA), and Justine Youssef (NSW). Presley’s overarching rationale considers the multi-faceted concept of resourcefulness, with each of this year’s chosen artists exploring ideas of sustainability and ingenuity within their practice.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This news follows Leecee's selection as a finalist for the Telstra National Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Art Awards (NATSIAA) and the recent acquisition of her series of six silk-coated wire baskets 'Gulai for our jundal (Women’s bag for our women)', by The British Museum.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Australian Financial Review, in its feature article on the artist in Life & Leisure on Friday, suggested ‘The British Museum (acquisition) … is the latest indication that Carmichael’s star is rapidly ascending’. Glen Iseger Pilkington, visual arts curator at Fremantle Arts Centre and one of the judges of this year’s NATSIAA awards was also quoted suggesting that, “Carmichael’s work defies Western categorisation ‘sitting between tool, map and work of art’.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Primavera 2021: Young Australian Artists is a free exhibition and on display at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, Level 1 South Gallery, from Friday 1 October 2021 – Sunday 13 February 2022.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

'Throw' by Sebastian Di Mauro is now open at the B

'Throw' by Sebastian Di Mauro is now open at the Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery till 22 August. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The exhibition is an autobiographical installation of six woven jacquard blankets derived from watercolour works on rag paper. It reflects on the artist’s life as a second-generation Italian living in Far North and Southern Queensland, with links to the Childers and Bundaberg region. Blankets have made up a significant part of Di Mauro’s artistic lexicon since the mid-1990s, and draw on the notions of comfort, familiarity and nurturing, to generate subtle undertones of protection, security and reassurance.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
