The current exhibition features six artists in a bold and colourful mixed show. This is the second Untitled exhibition after it was a great success last year.

The selected group of artists in this year’s show can best be classified as ‘emerging ‘ artists, mostly foreign to the gallery space and the exhibition reflects a varied spectrum of subject matter, practice and experience.

The exhibition features an uneasy preoccupation with death in most of the works exhibited.

Georgie Crawford has two bright semi- abstract works including a striking multi patterned updated Renaissance portrait entitled Portrait Of A Lady In Alpha featuring a twisted rope of pearls.

Anakita Escalante’s featured works are of fabulous Sydney landscapes such as  Standing Strong – North Head, Sydney. The works are rather small, but vibrant, swirling and you can feel the wind and the crashing sea.

Numskull’s works include a couple of marvellous sculptures but also we find bold, vivid, abstract linear paintings with dynamic composition and colour such as in  Geode.

The works of Loribelle Spirovski, a finalist in the 2015 Blacktown Arts Prize and this year’s Hunters Hill Art Prize, feature beautiful still lives such as Telepos 1 and 3,  which are contrasted with the work entitled After Warhol.

Her After Vermeer series (1 to 3), in bright pale pastel, is a reworking an iconic Vermeer portrait in the pop style of Warhol. There are also some quite unsettling works such as her Memento Mori series, which comes across as virtually photographic realism.

Nigel Sense’s bright, bold explosive graffiti like compositions feel somewhat cartoon like in style and mainly feature words and a single object on a rather plain background.

Freya Tripp’s works are magnificent floral still lives, and simply exquisite in their attention to detail.

The exhibition UNTITLED 2016 at the Traffic Jam Galleries, 41 Military Road. Nuetral Bay until 26 May.
