SPACE 2: GROUP SHOW
I Waited for You (Winterlong)
Exhibition dates. 12 - 24 August 2025
Opening Reception : Wed 13 August 2025, 6:00 - 8:30 pm
I Waited for You (Winterlong) is the fourth and final chapter in our year-long series of group exhibitions inspired by the seasons. This concluding exhibition turns to Winter—a time of retreat, reflection, and quiet transformation. It invites both artists and audiences to consider the emotional weight and poetic beauty of the coldest months in our calendar.
In this show, we proudly showcase a diverse group of Melbourne-based artists, each bringing their unique voice and vision to the theme. Through a range of mediums—drawing, painting, photography, and ceramics—the works explore the layered meanings of Winter. Some pieces evoke stillness and solitude, others capture the stark beauty of dormant landscapes or the comfort of interior spaces. There are reflections on longing, endurance, and the slow rhythms of time passing.
I Waited for You (Winterlong) speaks to the way Winter slows us down, asks us to notice the subtle, and challenges us to find warmth in unexpected places. This exhibition celebrates not just the season itself, but the richness of creative interpretation it inspires.
