Opening Night Tuesday 4 August 2026 6pm to 8pm
Artist Talk Sunday 2 August 2pm
Philip Noakes has earned enviable recognition for the unique designs and unsurpassed quality of his work both in Australia and overseas. He creates pieces of great beauty and unparalleled technical mastery that expose both his passion and deep dedication to his art.
Philip’s creativity is reflected in his designs that are influenced by changing environments. His practice is forged through his technical knowledge and expertise, pushing boundaries and ideas that emerge from his fertile imagination. Unique objects are created from a combination of discovered aptitudes and happy accidents. Philip conjures up beautiful pieces from hollow forms that are transformed into closed containers, bowls that seem to float and lavish sculptural objects, all with elaborate textures and shifting patterns created by hammering, oxidising and heat treatments.
