Opening: Shiver

Onespace Gallery invites you to sink your teeth into our final show for the year. Shiver brings together a group of Australian artists of various backgrounds—including Australian First Nations artists and artists with Polynesian, Chinese, Japanese, or European heritage—who dare to enter these open waters.

No Australian animal or marine creature captivates our national psyche more than our indigenous sharks. They divide us like no other creature in our ecosystem. The more they diminish in numbers, the more they loom omnipresent in our consciousness. They headline sensationally in all manner of news media, but our understanding of sharks is dominated disproportionately by fear.

Shiver includes a stellar line-up of artists from across the country, including: Leah Emery; Kevin Finn; Glen Mackie; Justin Majid; Deb Mostert; Garry Namponan; Leigh Namponan; Daniel O’Shane; Elysha Rei; Brian Robinson; Pamela See; Peter Solness; Jimmy J Thaiday; Jimmy K Thaiday and Samuel Tupou.
