CHUTESPACE
Opening Thusday 22 January, 2026, 6-8pm
Friday 23 January - Sunday 15 February
Castorina’s Art practice investigates themes centred around our natural environment and sustainability, she repurposes found items and deconstructs them to reinvent tactile compositions that provoke curiosity in the overlooked. Castorina’s creative practice bears witness to cycles of transformation, mechanical, ecological, and personal, inviting collaborative dialogue and responsible stewardship within our urban communities.
Her work aims to invite art enthusiasts interested in sustainability and consumer consumption to raise their awareness and perspectives of the everyday detritus through the language of Assemblage and sculptural installation.
About Chutespace
In November 2013 the former Griffith Library after-hours book-returns chute was transformed by Jeffree Skewes and Kerry Shepherdson, into a distinctive miniature exhibition space named CHUTESPACE.
CHUTESPACE is an artist run initiative and continues to be voluntarily curated and managed. Artists of all genres can apply for an exhibition.
Mini exhibitions are featured for four-week periods in line with the M16 main gallery exhibition periods.
All artist proposals are considered, and exhibitions are free to the artist.
