EXHIBITION DETAILS
Deborah Kelly I CREATION
22 November 2025 – 15 March 2026
CREATION is a multi-dimensional and cross-disciplinary artwork developed by contemporary artist Deborah Kelly. Born from collaborations with communities across Australia, the immersive installation featuring video, textiles, costumes and ceramics invites audiences to explore a queer, climate-conscious belief system that celebrates possibility, and collective dreaming.
CREATION is supported by the Australian Government through Creative Australia.
HOSSEI I ESSSENSSSE
22 November 2025 – 1 February 2026
ESSSENSSSE is a joyful work about healing and new beginnings by contemporary artist HOSSEI. Featuring otherworldly sea creatures in a playful and multi-sensory aquatic themed ecosystem, this immersive installation creates a dynamic space for all ages and abilities that invites audiences to celebrate their inner creative spirit and explore art through more than just sight.
ESSSENSSSE is a Verge Gallery exhibition curated by Tesha Mallot, touring in partnership with Museums & Galleries of NSW, supported by the University of Sydney and proudly funded by the NSW Government. Verge Gallery is supported by the University of Sydney Union.
