SPOTLIGHT ON: JOHN GATIP
——
Discover John Gatip's continuation of 'The Greenhouse', a colourful and graphic interpretation of flowering bulbs.
——
Now well and truly into Spring, colourful sprays of blooms have burst forth.
After such a rigorous and optimistic schedule, Gatip is able to reap the rewards, with hundreds of seedlings and corms coming into their full potential. The November 1st deadline is fast looming and he hopes his three succession sowing for each flower variety has ensured enough of a harvest for the big day. This collection captures the colour palette of the flowers chosen to be grown for the upcoming nuptuals.
——
Accompanying the collection is a playlist 'The Greenhouse' on Spotify, and a selection of flower guides.
Visit our website to view the collection and accompanying content.
——
The works of John Gatip span within the transection of art and architecture. He explores this through sculpture, painting and installation, developing a symbiotic process between the two disciplines. Architectural tectonics are central to his sculptures and paintings, where the boundaries of art and architecture begin to blur. Gatip’s practice often employs simple geometries, colour, and composition, leaving an anthropomorphic imprint of himself on his paintings. Likewise, his sculptures rely heavily on materiality as a medium for storytelling.

GROUND FLOOR GALLERY: JENNIFER TARRY-SMITH
——
Be enthralled by these stunning paintings by local multidisciplinary artist Jennifer Tarry-Smith, now on display in the ground floor gallery.
——
Jennifer Tarry-Smith is a Melbourne based artist working in the medium of painting and printmaking. She produces abstract works that are meditative explorations of line and negative space. The act of laying down lines and leaving spaces is an ongoing, intuitive process that leads Tarry-Smith to being so immersed in her work she loses track of time and space.
She is drawn to the intricacies and nuances that emerge as pattern evolves and changes to suit its environment. It is these subtle differences that distinguish the hand-made from machine-made, and highlights the beauty in the imperfect.
——
To view more details about these paintings, head to our website or visit the gallery this week.
