Exhibitions

Orlando Mee - CHURNING THE OCEAN - SALA 2025

In a speculative future where rising seas have consumed the
Earth, the last surviving humans dredge the waters in search
of forgotten technological artifacts which might save them.
Old computers, electronic toys and junk plastics are
assembled as sculpture, video and installation to explore
how human desires manifest in the era of the Anthropocene.

SAMA - SAMA (Together) - Alyssa Powell-Ascura & Louis Bullock

Sama-sama (meaning Together) is an interactive, conceptual exhibition that bridges visual art, sound and play. The collaborators are inspired to meet the concept of 'communitas', speaking of various experiences adding layers to a site, or memory or collective culture.

Fruzsi Kenez - SOURCE AND STREAM (THE RIVER FLOWS BOTH WAYS)

A deeply site-responsive project that translates the energy of the Ngangkipari river and a 19th century Hungarian poetry collection into a ceramic ‘pebble’ of the day.
