'Abstract art is uniquely modern. It is a fundamentally romantic response to modern life - rebellious, individualistic, unconventional, sensitive, irritable.' Robert Motherwell.
Abstraction is the art of the intangible. It is a bridge between the visible and the invisible and it enables the artist to perceive beyond the tangible. It also engages the viewer to be an active participant in having a dialogue and completing the work through personal perception and interpretation.
The exhibition 'Intangible - Abstraction in Art' features 13 artists with paintings and sculptures in various forms of abstraction. The exhibited works create a visual language that speaks not through literal representation, but through form, colour and rhythm. They resist the boundaries of the tangible world, inviting the viewer into a realm where meaning is not dictated but discovered. In this space, the artist becomes both architect and poet, constructing images that are less about what is visible and more about what is sensed and perceived.

Fahn (James Gardiner)
1973, is a Sydney based artist, with a strong focus in ambiguity, perception and digital fabrication. Formerly an award-winning Architect and inventor (13 patents), his achievements include the world’s first 3D printed reef (2011-14) and the development of the FreeFAB Wax system - a 3D print and CNC system for fabrication of sustainable complex moulds for the construction industry (2012-2017) used for the Elizabeth line, London Underground project. James former careers have been recognised with numerous awards, scholarships, a Guinness world record and press coverage including National Geographic, New Scientist and the Economist.
James dedicated himself full time to his art practice in 2018, after many years of exploration. James continues to engage with technologies in novel ways. Gardiner completed an artist residency at UNSW Art & Design, where he pursued the design and fabrication of a large 3D printed ‘Shard’ sculpture for Sculpture by the Sea in 2018. James has since pioneered new methods of integrating digital machine cutting with traditional drawing and painting techniques within the postgraduate Master of Fine Arts program at the National Art School, Sydney in 2024. In line with James former career as an inventor, James works across multiple mediums and materials and is constantly experimenting and pushing his work into new territory on the world stage.
