Short Description

Incinerator Gallery exhibits work by emerging and established artists in the Atrium. The space is best suited to sculptural and spatial practices that are site-specific. Applicants are encouraged to visit the exhibition space prior to submitting their proposal.

The Atrium is best suited to spatial, and sculptural practice—ranging from physical, large-scale works, to audio, to virtual reality, to conceptual, or architectural works. We invite your creative responses to the space, and encourage any enquiries with the gallery curator.
