Exhibition Calendar
2021 is the year for exploration, connection and expansion. Our shows feature local and emerging artist, many of whom have never exhibited at a gallery before. We showcase up and coming talent and provide a space for artists to connect with their audience and have space to display their work to the world.
Our exhibition themes centre around the experience of being human, the impact of humans on the world, and are tailored to fit around our school holiday and educational programming schedule.
If you have work you would like to exhibit in any of the shows listed below please complete our artist submission form or email with your portfolio or proposal.
9 February - 20 March: Saturation Point
Saturation Point is the point of overwhelm, the overstimulation, the brightness of saturation that we experience in contemporary life and pop culture. Think bright colours, bold shapes and windows into the souls of people as they process the overwhelm.
23 March - 24 April: Sea of Life (Becoming)
Underwater landscapes, the environmental impact of humans on the ocean, an exploration into the depths of a world we may only visit and never truly inhabit. This show also pairs with our school holiday program focused on the topic of "Becoming" and looks at the transitional and evolutionary world under the sea.
27 April - 5 June: Wild Women
Hero women, goddess figures, the great unleashing of sound. This show pairs the gentle, delicate feminine with the strong, vibrational power of the wild woman. Abstract and pictorial works, sculptures and installations.
8 June - 10 July: Fauna (Being)
Native fauna and the relationship between human and animals will be the focus of this exhibition as our school holiday program curriculum centre's around the topic of "Being". We will dive deep into the ability of animals to exist in the present, celebrating joy, being mindful.
13 July - 14 August: Synapsis
Synapsis is the fusion of chromosome pairs at the start of meiosis. The moment of growth and division of the cells, the ignition of life, the spark that creates connection and evolution. Synapsis is SenOpsis and Sen Event's flagship exhibition and event month pairing our love of connection and expression with the great spark of human creativity. Much like Prometheus' gift of flame to man that provided us with technology and invention as well as the spark of independent thought, the Synapsis explores the connections between people and our place in the world.
17 August - 11 September: Reflections & Introspections
How do we process and repair after years like 2019 and 2020? Bush fires, drought, floods, followed by a global pandemic and months of anxiety and tension? We take a moment to pause, reflect on ourselves, look at our lives and have a moment of introspection. This show will be an intimate look at the processes of reflecting, and turn the moment of introspection back to the viewer. Mirrors, lights, reflections in still water, photography, painting and sculpture.
14 September - 16 October: Landscapes (Belonging)
The tradition of landscapes is as old as art itself. It stems from our yearning to understand our place in the world, our place of belonging. This is why we're pairing our Landscape exhibition with our school holiday program looking at the topic of "Belonging".
19 October - 13 November: Bodies in Motion
Dancing, writhing, growing, forming. Life drawing and portraiture is so often static. Static images of static bodies. Our portrait show flips the traditional portrait exhibition on it's head and makes it do it's own handstand. Bodies in Motion brings together abstracted bodies, moving bodies, kinetic sculptures and more.
16 November - 30 November: Youth Expression
OC's, kids art, teen angst. This show is by the Youth for the Youth. Our featured artists are all under 17 years old and are ready to tell you what they think.
Opening night will be on the 20th of November to coincide with International Children's Day.
1 December - 29 December: Artisan Makers Market for Christmas
In the lead up to Christmas, we want to provide a space for all the local artisans to showcase their wares - an extended art and craft market with all the gifts, beautiful things and creations from local makers for you to come and browse. Support local business, support local artists. A unique gifting and shopping experience.
