Art Gallery | Sculpture Exhibition
Experience our ongoing program of solo and collaborative exhibitions by some of Australia's finest emerging and established artists
Our historic cellar door c. 1859 with its rustic charm, high ceilings and whitewashed brick walls operates as both a tasting room and an art gallery. We exhibit the works of both established and emerging Australian artists in all art forms. Exhibitions are located in the Main Gallery and in the Winery Viewing Gallery, with exhibitions rotating every four to six weeks. A selection of outdoor sculptures are also on display in the gardens and on the Sculpture Terrace overlooking the Yarra Ranges. Commissions from artwork sales are donated to My Room Children’s Cancer Charity.
Artworks can be purchased through the Yering Station Cellar Door.

JENNY REDDIN
Reddin’s brushless paintings are informed by thoughtful engagements with nature. They therefore recall what is familiar, while making us aware of a perpetual process of dissolution, and as they slide obliquely into deepening states of abstraction, they nonetheless appear to reveal the patterned tracery of their past. By utilising mirroring effects achieved through symmetrical blotting, and overlaying this with a viscous blend of solvent, pigment and medium, each suspended form blooms forth with an inbuilt power to play on our perceptions. As with Rorschach inkblots, pareidolia ensues, leaving viewers free to discover faces, bodies, geographical features and other meaningful forms.
Jenny Reddin, Opulent, mixed media on canvas, 153 x 173 cm
AMANDA PAGE
Page’s art develops through observing transformative processes in natural systems, such as weather patterns, erosion, interactions between organisms, organic metamorphoses, and overarching cycles of growth and decay. This inevitably involves complex energy exchanges which precipitate the breakdown of substances into simpler material forms. In capturing and recording the visible effects of these processes and the consequent changes of state in materials, Page creates works about change as a universal condition that connects all matter, while drawing us into narratives around fragility, loss, impermanence, and the interaction of invisible forces.
Amanda Page, The Presence of Absence, cast aluminium, 30 x 80 x 20 cm

BEING AND IMAGINATION
JO CARROLL
14 MAY — 19 JUNE
WINERY VIEWING GALLERY | ENTRY IS FREE
Intuitive abstract artist Jo Carroll creates from a space of nothingness, beyond preconceived ideas and compositional plans.
Carroll’s imagery is calming, atmospheric and ethereal, drawing viewers into transcendent states of being and becoming. Clouds, nebulae, otherworldly landscapes, alluring bodies of water, and the exalting glow of refracted light are all recurring themes.
In showing the imagination a reflection of itself, these works evoke spaces for tranquillity, reflection, rebalance and revitalisation.
Jo Carroll, Aqua Odyssey, acrylic on ultra-fine canvas framed in Tasmanian Oak, 123 x 197 cm
