Exhibition opening: Casey Chen and Louise Zhang

30 Jan 2025 

We're delighted to invite you to the opening celebration of Casey Chen: Another Jingdezhen Car Boot Sale, and Louise Zhang: Moving in Quiet at N.Smith Gallery.

Casey Chen's solo exhibition Another Jingdezhen Car Boot Sale, is an eclectic and playful collection of ceramics masterfully painted using traditional techniques. Toying with the kitschy aesthetics of nostalgic daytime cartoons and ready made cultural paraphernalia, these works challenge notions of taste, value, and tradition. Pushing his technical range, this show is Casey's most ambitious body of work to date, exploring the nature of contemporary culture and historicisation. 

Louise Zhang’s solo exhibition Moving in Quiet, is an exploration of cultural heritage and third-culture identity through new and iconic works. Inspired by her recent trip to China, the exhibition invites viewers to slow down and uncover intricate narratives within elements of traditional architecture and ethereal landscapes.

Join Casey and Louise on Thurs 30 January 6-8pm in our gallery at 15 Foster Street, Surry Hills to celebrate the opening of both exhibitions.

No RSVP necessary. All welcome.
