Exhibition Title | Edge of Presence
Artist | Brenda Page
Exhibition Statement
Edge of Presence is a sculptural body of work that employs glass to examine mortality, reflection, and the human condition. Developed during a residency at Canberra Glassworks and later expanded in the artist’s studio, the exhibition presents sculptural glass pieces alongside large-scale photographic works. 

At its centre, Edge of Presence is about holding space for pause, transition, and stillness. The works invite quiet consideration of what shapes us, what we carry, and how we might meet life’s endings with reflection and, perhaps, gratitude. 

Exhibition Title | Veins of Air
Artist | Akie Haga
Exhibition Statement
This installation gathers experimental glass forms—clear, coloured, solid, and blown—that resemble seeds, pods, and fragile growths. Within them, breath becomes structure, and traces of organic matter are suspended like veins of air. Together, they create a fleeting landscape of nature held in transparency.
