SAM BULLOCK

The Roots of Resistance

Resistance grows in the fertile soil of Asia, Africa and Latin America, coming from the grassroots. The colonial history of subjugation that these nations go through is the breeding ground for resistance movements worldwide. When you look at any of the revolutions in these countries, history reveals the origins of rebellion and the persistent struggle against oppression.

PHILIP RANG ACS

Queensland Renaissance

Queensland Renaissance is a new body of photographic work exploring landscape, light, and regional identity through a contemporary visual language.

The project brings together large-scale photographic works that move between intimate observation and expansive environmental portraiture. Images range from quiet rural moments — animals, terrain, shifting weather — to heightened atmospheric studies of sunrise and sunset, where light becomes the central subject.

Rather than documenting Queensland in a descriptive or touristic way, the work reframes familiar environments through tone, scale, and duration. The images emphasise resilience, stillness, and transformation — positioning the landscape as both subject and metaphor.

The exhibition is conceived as a spatial experience. Large-format prints are designed to immerse the viewer, with careful attention to sequencing, light, and tonal progression across the series. The works move between grounded, textural detail and expansive horizons, creating a rhythm between proximity and distance.

Queensland Renaissance sits within a broader investigation into how regional identity can be reinterpreted through contemporary photographic practice — balancing documentary instinct with formal image-making.

Raw_Sounds-010526.jpg

With the upcoming return of Nowhere Fast Redux, as part of the 2026 Open Season Program, we wanted to show support for the rich indie music scene in Brisbane.

We are inviting bands to present a stripped down version of themselves as part of an experimental series called 'Raw Sounds'.

The first gig in our bar area is local punk band 'Bubblegum Haircut', a three-piece rock band combining passionate lyricism and lively sound. Check them out on insta(@bubblegumhaircut) and Bandcamp (https://bubblegumhaircut.bandcamp.com/).

On Friday 1 May 2026 at 5:00 pm - 6:45 pm. Limited tickets available @ https://square.link/u/fO8E5DCA
