In his new body of large-scale works, Christopher Zankoturns his attention to architectural forms that are quietly vanishing from the Australian landscape. Drawing on a visual language shaped by geometry, repetition, and surface, Zanko documents buildings that sit at the threshold of use and obsolescence, structures marked by time, weather, and shifting social priorities.

These works function as both record and reflection, capturing the presence of spaces that once shaped daily life while acknowledging their gradual erasure. Through scale and precision, the exhibition considers how architecture holds memory, and what is lost when these familiar forms slip from view.

Interested? Christopher is busy making work for the show, but we’re happy to send you a preview once the works are ready. Just let us know.

Opening celebration 7 March 2pm. All invited. No RSVP required.
