In the last few years, we have been preoccupied with seemingly intractable global problems. Today there is a cautious optimism and a focus on what we can do to find solutions.

The words of French philosopher Albert Camus, "In the midst of winter I found there was, within me, an invincible summer", remind us that we have within us a kernel of personal power, resilience and persistence we can draw upon in the face of hopelessness. In this exhibition, Boesenberg, Nelson and Russell celebrate keeping hope alive, persistence and a progression to a more constructive time. 

Exhibition will be closed for Easter long weekend (7 - 9 April 2023)
