Thank you to everyone who joined us for the opening of The Weight yesterday. It was wonderful to share the evening with so many familiar and new faces.

Now on view until 15 August, The Weight brings together works by Angus Hamra, McLean Edwards, Henrik Godsk, Adam Lester, Andrew Salgado, Craig Handley, Ryan Schneider, David Griggs, Nacho Eterno and Adam Spark.

The exhibition explores the invisible weight we carry - shaped by history, memory, family, culture and our shared experiences. Through a diverse assembly of figures and faces, The Weight reflects on our shared humanity and the stories that connect us.

We look forward to welcoming you to the gallery.

Jordy Kerwick’s new Water Paintings represent a profound refinement of the visual language that has shaped his practice over the past decade. While retaining the instinctive immediacy that defines his work, these paintings unfold with extraordinary intricacy, their surfaces alive with rhythmic marks, layered textures, and vibrant colour. Creatures, flowers, and flowing forms emerge through countless gestures, creating compositions that shimmer with movement and tactile energy.

Kerwick draws deeply from the city of Venice in these new works it’s shifting atmosphere and waterways. Echoing the psychological landscape of Death in Venice, these paintings inhabit a space where beauty and unease, permanence and erosion, exist in delicate balance. Labyrinthine currents, submerged forms, and luminous reflections evoke a world suspended between memory and transformation.

Congratulations to , announced as a finalist in the 2026 Sir John Sulman Prize at the Art Gallery of New South Wales with his work
‘Exchanging culture for lavender (Autumn)’
oil on canvas
189x150cm

One of Australia’s most distinctive contemporary painters, Griggs has built a powerful visual language across painting, film, installation and performance. His work is urgent, uncompromising and deeply alive, drawing from personal experience, political imagery, popular culture, subcultural histories and the raw social energies of the places he has lived and worked.

This latest recognition in the Sulman Prize affirms Griggs’ enduring importance within Australian contemporary painting, and his ability to create works that are both visually electric and psychologically charged.

Congratulations David.

PIERMARQ* in conjunction with is delighted to present ‘Faulty Cognitions’, an exhibition of new work from Sydney-based artist Tom Ferson, with an opening reception this Thursday, April 30, from 6 - 8pm.

Ferson’s work evolves the world immediately around us, in the visual cultures of signage—commerce, transportation, advertising. Channelling ideas of meaning-making from his training as an art therapist, Ferson’s investigations offer fascinating insight into both the experience of meaning but also its sculptural construction.

New work by Nacho Eterno is now at PIERMARQ*.

Barcelona-based artist Nacho Eterno, formerly a tattoo artist and muralist, now has a self-taught practice spanning painting and ceramics. This work is deeply influenced by observations of nature rendered in the architectural, playful styles of outsider art and folk art traditions. His unique characters, often animals, occupy vibrant, abstract landscapes.

Cannon Dill (b. 1991) has a flair for compositions that are both dynamic in their liveliness and abstracted in their stillness.

His naïve depictions of animals, figures, and everyday objects are immediately charming and technically sharp. These tensions - between control and spontaneity, design and expression - form the core of his evolving body of work, which PIERMARQ* will be bringing to the this April.
