New Exhibitions

M16 Artspace is pleased to announce the opening of three new exhibitions.

Opening Thursday 30th July, 6 - 8pm

This is a free event!

Gallery 1 | UNruly

Catherine Anselmi, David Helmers, Ro Murray, Mandy Burgess

In UNRuly, three artists - Catherine Anselmi (sculpture), David Helmers (ceramics) and collaboration Murray and Burgess (drawing) - use the strategy of unruliness as an important generator of form in their object-making practices. Their installations explore unruly themes: the flux of time and matter, transformation, and female determination in old age. 

Gallery 2 | Glad Tidings

Susan Chancellor

Glad tidings is a solo exhibition by Susan Chancellor focussed on a section of a tidal estuary close to her studio. The visual wonders of this transition zone between the land and the sea are revealed in this multi-media exhibition that includes the screening of a digital artwork showing the mesmerising rhythmic tidal movements and magical reflected surfaces.

Gallery 3 | Position/Trajectory

Matthew Freeman, Anne Pyne Irving, Tristan Ouweleen

What is drawing if not a method of meaning making - of connecting? Position/Trajectory brings together three distinct drawing practices that navigate the fleeting, the fading, and the luminous.

Traversing the mercurial scapes of our age, the works witness, map, and momentarily suspend the magic embedded within movement, memory, and change.

-------------------------------------------------------

Exhibitions run from Friday 31 July - Sunday 23 August 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.
