On view 18 – 31 August
Official Function Saturday 23rd August 3-6pm.
Conceptual artists who have abandoned the traditional canvas, choosing instead a bespoke medium to challenge and expand the boundaries of painting. Their work offers a fresh perspective on the discipline, reimagining what a painted surface can be. Serious in craft but playfully irreverent in spirit, they don’t take art too seriously—only seriously enough to reinvent it. As a systematic subversive, they disrupt expectations with intention and clarity. Rather than serving a new dish, they introduce an entirely new cuisine to the art world.
Seal
My ‘Seal’ Painting was Inspired by a photograph I was drawn to from a calendar. I used the clear canvas to represent the crystal clear ocean waters and I used a solid base to create the look of a white sandy ocean floor for the happy seal to rest on.
Ocean
My Painting, ‘Ocean’ is one of my favourite pieces and my most detailed work yet. A girl laying off her board in the shallow blue.I wanted to paint different shades of blue for the background to represent the colours of a healthy reef, along with the sunshine shining directly on the girls right side. I wanted to replicate the feeling of comfort over the stunning clear waters of the great barrier’s reefs.
Fish outta water
My Painting ‘Fish outta water’ shows a young girl sitting on her longboard stuck in the breaks drifting deep, I wanted to represent the colours ascending from the shallows to the depths. I aimed to resemble the adrenaline of being stuck in a strong set of crashing waves from a Birds Eye view.
Their Brains
My ‘Their Brains’ Painting was my second Clear Canvas painting ever done, painted outside under the trees of my backyard, i experimented with a variety of funky colours, i wanted the wind blowing the painted circles in all different directions to create its own pattern.

John Douglas is an award-winning Australian multimedia artist whose exhibitions have received acclaim and caused controversy both in his home country and internationally. Introspective Retrospective will be his first retrospective exhibition in Australia.
A student at the Queensland College of Art until his expulsion for being a “disruptive and disturbing influence”, John left the school to find immediate success in state and regional art galleries. He has since been part of many group and solo exhibitions in Australia, including many for the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras festival and a special exhibition as part of the Sydney 2002 Gay Games cultural festival. International solo exhibitions include shows in Paris, Fort Lauderdale, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Geneva, and Shanghai.
