Mitchell Ferrie’s exhibition ‘Do you see what I see’ is part of an ongoing investigation of works known as the Fractal series. Through the hand of Ferrie, we are left teetering on the edge of what is physically possible with the materiality of the marble. It is a powerful metaphor, a rich dialogue that flows through the exhibition, revealing much about the new world where fault lines exist but cannot be seen.

From Morten Lassen's studio in Helsingør, Denmark comes a beautiful exhibition of works on paper for the Nanda\Hobbs Project Space. Richly layered and vibrant in tone - Lassen  continues his exploration of the digital world with his analogue practice.

Louis Pratt’s renowned innovation in sculpture delves deep into the nature of human physicality in this series of four interrelated bronze dancers. He points to the beauty and complexity that exists in a world that is challenging the nature of our relationships with one another.

This Used to Be the Future is a unique vision that recontextualizes the past into the artist’s alternative future. Epic smokestacks of the Industrial Revolution—architecturally beautiful in their simplicity and engineering—are now obsolete in a world far more concerned with carbon emissions than ever before. The once-powerful symbol of empire and commerce is now maligned to an instrument of Armageddon.

Sydney artist James Powditch sifts through the gems and detritus of our modern world. He adapts found objects and images, enthusing them with new and heightened meaning. A bowerbird by nature, he occupies a special place in contemporary Antipodean art as the foremost constructivist artist of his generation.
