The next season of exhibitions showcase our selection from the 2025 call for entries with emerging and local artists featured throughout the gallery spaces as part of our annual programming for Platform Projects.
‘we/us/theirs/all’ is a major solo exhibition of new works by Murri artist Norton Fredericks that confronts our current epoch of catastrophe.
‘Alas-alasan’ is an exhibition of new textiles and sculptures by Naarm-based artist Leo Bagus Purnomo, featuring traditional batik motifs of animals and plants, where the forest symbolises a liminal place between the earth and gunung (or ‘mountain’) that is symbolic of heaven.
‘Tending the Invasion’ is a photographic installation by artist Angus Scott, who addresses blackberry (Rubus fruticosus) as a site of ecological, colonial, and personal entanglement.
The exhibitions are now open until Sunday, 13 June.

inthegardens is a free, improvised live music gathering held in local gardens across Melbourne.
Created by SwimGood and joined by special guests, the series invites people to disconnect from the pace of the city and reconnect with something creative – whether that’s journaling, reading, sketching, resting, or simply listening.
The set will be performed live using synthesisers, guitar, drum pads, ambient textures and everything in between; emphasising spontaneity and shared atmosphere.
There’s no stage, no ticketing, and no pressure – just music woven into a public space. Bring a blanket, a book, a friend, or simply yourself.
Free and open to the public.
