COLOUR RUSH: OFFICIAL OPENING

Poimena Gallery is set to ignite the senses with Colour Rush, a dynamic survey exhibition presented as part of Ten Days on the Island Festival in March 2025. Featuring works from 38 contemporary artists, this ambitious exhibition explores the profound impact of colour in art, celebrating its ability to communicate, evoke emotion, and transcend cultural and linguistic barriers.
From the subtle interplay of tones to bold, striking contrasts, Colour Rush invites audiences to experience colour as more than a visual element—it is a language, a force, and a storyteller. Through a diverse range of mediums, the exhibition showcases how contemporary artists use colour to captivate, challenge, and connect with their viewers. Visitors will encounter works that pulse with energy, embrace minimalist precision, and push the boundaries of material and form, all unified by a commitment to colour as the central subject.
This exhibition brings together a remarkable lineup of local, national, and internationally recognised artists, offering a rare opportunity to engage with a broad spectrum of artistic approaches. From emerging voices to established practitioners, each artist contributes a singular piece that speaks to their unique relationship with colour, demonstrating the infinite possibilities within contemporary art.
