The Abstract Condition - Group Exhibition

The exhibition opens to the public on March 27th and runs through to June 27th.

To celebrate the exhibition, we will be hosting an Opening Night Party on April 16th.
Free tickets for the opening night are available now.

The Abstract Condition brings together a carefully curated collection of original works exploring the many possibilities of abstraction. Featuring artists connected to Firepit’s growing creative community — from emerging voices to more established practitioners — the exhibition presents a wide range of approaches to colour, form, texture and process.

Some works are bold and immediate, others quieter and more contemplative. Together they create a space where viewers can spend time with the work, allowing different meanings, emotions and interpretations to emerge.

At Firepit, exhibitions are about more than simply showing work on a wall. They are about creating a shared space where artists, ideas and audiences come together. The Abstract Condition reflects that spirit — a gathering of different practices and perspectives, united by the freedom and openness that abstraction allows.

For collectors, art lovers and first-time buyers alike, the exhibition also offers the opportunity to acquire original artworks directly from the artists, supporting independent creative practice and becoming part of Firepit’s growing community.

Opening Night Celebration

While the exhibition opens to the public on March 27th, the official opening celebration takes place later on April 16th.

At Firepit we often allow exhibitions to run for a short time before holding the opening event. This approach gives the work time to settle into the space and allows the gallery to share the exhibition gradually before bringing everyone together for a larger celebration. It also creates a renewed moment of energy around the show — a chance for artists, visitors and collectors to gather, connect and experience the exhibition together.

Opening nights at Firepit are lively, welcoming evenings with music, drinks at the bar, and the chance to meet many of the artists involved.

Exhibiting Artists

The Abstract Condition features work from over thirty artists connected to Firepit’s expanding creative community. The exhibition includes a diverse mix of practices, perspectives and approaches to abstraction, reflecting the wide range of voices that make up the Firepit network.

From emerging artists at the beginning of their journeys to mid-career practitioners continuing to develop their work, the exhibition highlights the richness and vitality of contemporary abstract practice.
