Opening Hours
The Space Between Us: an art exhibition by Janet Brooks & Ash Gonzales 31 July to 7 September 2025
An exhibition that explores the artists journey of mother (Janet Brooks) and daughter (Ash Gonzales) Showcasing contrasting styles that reflect their individual perspectives. Together they discovered how art can cover emotional and physical spaces.
‘The space between us’ captures both the physical and emotional aspects of their shared creative journey over the past two decades, they have sat side by side each other creating artwork that resonates to them. The work produced emphasises how different artistic expressions can coexist and interact within the same space.
Expect to see Bears wearing tiaras or holding designer handbags and opposite across the space, be dazzled with the pseudo-geometrical abstracts.
Artist Statements 2025
Ash Gonzales
Ash uses acrylic-filled pens to create abstract surface patterns on canvas boards. Her artwork is freehand, meaning no geometric tools are employed, avoiding the need for mathematical concepts and calculations. Although Ash’s mother suspects that she may have undiagnosed neurological dyscalculia, this has not hindered Ash from producing these pseudo-geometrical pieces.
In her creative process, Ash carefully selects colours, often using 3 to 4 shades from the same family, paired with one contrasting colour from the opposite side of the colour wheel. This combination makes the other colours pop and adds depth to her work.
Janet Brooks
Janet’s oil paintings invites viewers to explore how our environments shape our perceptions of self. In paintings like “Sticky Drumstick 2025,” the personal narratives and symbolism, such as, Janet as a bear representing inner turmoil.
She reinterpret family photographs through diverse artistic styles, celebrating cultural heritage and the complexities of identity. Pieces like “Come to Jamaica 2023” reflect on migration and belonging. Ultimately, her aim is to connect personal experiences with broader societal themes, fostering understanding and reflection through art.
