In the first exhibition of Canberra Glassworks' 2021 program, Scott Chaseling investigates people's complex relationship with colour and what colour symbolises today. His works focus on the joy of colour and light and the interactive environment challenges viewers to discover the potential of colour and how it makes them feel. He approaches his sculptural practice by investigating how experiences can be communicated through form and repetition, developing a way to translate memories into tiny maquettes and drawings into large-scale sculptures. Taking full advantage of the transparent qualities of glass, the sculptures are made from multiple-coloured tubes and chain-links that shift, change, and evolve as viewers walk around the gallery. The Redemption of Colour is on at Canberra Glassworks, 11 Wentworth Street, Kingston, until April 11, 2021. canberraglassworks.com.

The first M16 Artspace exhibitions are on until January 31. In Gallery 1, the group show Double Standard challenges artists to present their work in a different context of a double standard, and juxtapose their ideas, media and use of space. Gallery 2 contains M16 Chair's Prize winner Amy Powell's work Oasis, made up of 270 ceramic tiles. It invites the audience to consider each tile as its own separate identity but also draws on the concept of capturing beauty from a single moment in time. In Gallery 3, Phil Page's Urban Fragments continues his explorations into Australia's urban environments, focusing on Melbourne and the way cities have developed as urban palimpsests. And in the Chutespace, Naomi Zouwer's She lived further down the rabbit hole is inspired by Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. m16artspace.com.au.
