Untitled. 2022
Untitled. is an annual tjg initiative that focuses on celebrating the works of guest artists foreign to our gallery space. Curated from local, interstate and international artists all at varying stages of their artistic journeys.
Captured Moments
Customarily my paintings encapsulate an observers captivated gaze over a subject. My viewpoint on someone captured living in a moment.
Porous and Quivering
Will Maguire’s solo exhibition titled ‘Porous and Quivering’ is an exploration into the vibrancy of matter and features a range of sculptural works in metal and wood
Andrew Bennett Pop Up
Andrew's ‘Still Life’ works delve into the imagination, melding the conscious with a dream-like surreal subconscious.
Chiaroni Pop Up
Chiaroni was born in Southland New Zealand and creates pieces that speak of his traditional New Zealand heritage.
Sydney & Surrounds
'Sydney & Surrounds' is a thematic group exhibition that will be held during the month of February and features numerous tjg artists responding to this theme. Overt or with subtle links to the thematic brief, works include sculpture, painting, collage and mixed media.
Hot Dogs
Rory OBrien's ‘Hot Dogs’ works pick up on the character of the canines he meets, capturing them in bright, bold and contrasting colours.
Kuringgai
To celebrate the launch of Miranda's works at the gallery we are thrilled to announce 'Kuringgai' a pop-up exhibition of exciting new highly textured works.
Mixed Tricks
This exciting body of work features new approaches and further developments of Andrew’s notable style. From his iconic beach and waterscapes to vibrant birds bursting with personality and colour 'Mixed Tricks' includes paintings rendered with looser brushstrokes and an earthy palette embracing Australia's magnificent iconic bushlands.
Gardens, Water and the Great Outdoors
During the lockdowns Megan needed to work from her existing photographic stock. Studying these references it was apparent a running theme had emerged, that of
gardens, water and all subject matter taken from the great outdoors, hence the title.
Finding Stillness
This body of work titled ‘Finding Stillness’ provides the viewer with what feels like a safe haven, where a feeling of calmness and quiet pervades
The Quiet Life
I have a folder that I fill with interesting pictures of everyday moments. As I’ve returned to this file over the years, I’ve found that the images have evolved over time. I have altered and displaced the figures in these pictures to echo a transformation. An approach that gives rise to a dreamlike atmosphere where reality, memory and illusion collide.
Sam Hopkins Selected Works Exhibition
Sam Hopkins 'Selected Works' exhibition features a variety of mediums from 316 marine grade stainless steel, Corten steel, aluminium and timbers across wall-mounted, plinth based, suspended and free-standing pieces.
Somersaults & Cartwheels
Rebecca Pierce’s solo exhibition 'Somersaults & Cartwheels' is a voyage into colour and texture with large doses of positivity, happiness and fun.
Remember The Wild
‘Remember the Wild’ is an exploration and an appreciation of how these trees; through culture, sacred and spiritual connections, define the character of the Australian bush and our growing understanding of their significance.

Yet there is something uncanny lying just beneath the surface. J has the wonderful ability to make the ordinary extraordinary and through this exhibition, we see the wonder and beauty found in the everyday.
