GESTURES
A Radical First Look from the Resilient Artist Cohort
15 August – 5 September 2025
Opening night: Friday 15 August from 6:30pm – all welcome!
Gesture explores the many ways movement, mark-making, and intention shape artistic practice. From layered landscapes that shift with emotion, to energetic strokes alive with vitality, to abstract compositions that carry the weight of memory and heritage, each work reveals gesture as both signal and action.
Some pieces trace the quiet rhythms of daily life — the repeated movements of care, the subtle adjustments shaped by cultural expectation. Others hold stillness, where the placement of objects, colour, and form suggest emotion without the human figure.
This is the first exhibition in a 12-month journey with the Resilient Artist Cohort, a live experiment: open-ended, collaborative, and in motion. We are only at the beginning. Over the year ahead, the artists will continue to develop their practices together, building towards a final exhibition in March 2026. Here, process matters as much as outcome, and every gesture, large or small, leaves its mark.
✨ We can’t wait to welcome you.
