Gallery 2 |
It Only Hurts When I Laugh
John Rowe
John A. Rowe presents a deeply personal exhibition of paintings shaped by anxiety, humour and instinct. Drawing on a parallel career in children’s book illustration, the works unfold as visual fables that transform fear into playful, symbolic narratives that invite viewers to recognise shared vulnerability, emotional honesty and connection.
Gallery 3 |
Blue Mountains Portrait Journey
Patrick Hromas
Patrick Hromas’s practice centres on figures and environments drawn from the Blue Mountains, NSW. His oil paintings depict streetscapes and bushland scenes extending from Springwood to the Nepean River, grounding the work within a specific and recognisable geography. These landscapes situate contemporary life within a terrain shaped by memory, history, and cultural inheritance.

Fleeced # 1 - Carnage/ La Matanza
Fernando Pino
We ride on the sheep's back, knowing too well that the numbers don't
stack up.
Click go the shears...
click, click, click.
The golden age of empire, nothing stood in her way.
Fleeced...
Like a tin toy soldier the golden fleece is called up for service.
Lined up with the others. Drawn and 1/4
Loose!
Exhibitions run from Friday 20 March to Sunday 20 April 2026
Gallery opening times: Wednesday to Sunday, 12 - 5pm.
M16 Artspace operates on the lands of the Ngunnawal and Ngambri people. We honour and pay our respects to their traditional custodians. We acknowledge this land always was and always will be the country of Australia’s First Nations People. Sovereignty was never ceded.
