We’re hard launching our Soft Opening Party on Saturday 13th Dec from 6pm. Entry by donation, limited capacity, bookings and early arrival encouraged.

Softness is the methodology in this group exhibition of interdisciplinary practices, installation, moving image, video, film, and animation. Against harsh realities of personal and environmental disasters, or the unyielding grind of time, softness manifests itself as subversion, surrender and resistance. Tread gently at The Lock-Up and uncover softness through time-based practices. Featuring works by Jamie Bastoli, Jasmine Craciun, Alysha Fewster, Fiona Lee, David Lobb, Ali Noble and Nicole Smede, consider with us what it means to respond to the social, environmental and existential crises of living.
