MAY SPACE is proud to present a new suite of sculptures by represented artist- Peter Tilley.My interest in the connections between the figure and the shadow it casts- once more forms the basis of this body of work. Images of the self were seen indistinctly in polished materials prior to the production of silvered mirrors. Historically- this resulted in a semantic ambiguity between 'reflection' and 'shadow' and is another element I have explored in this body of work. Some of the sculpture's cast shadows are voids and some are material constructions- they symbolically or visually disclose withheld traits of the casting figure that may not be consciously observed. Our usual perceptive process evaluates an object by its real cast shadow and then quickly dispenses with that shadow from our perception. Conversely- these tactile- sculpted material shadows are not only visible- but their tangible presence can be noticed and scrutinised for meaning.Most works in this exhibition are concerned with the relationship between psychological and physical perception- or the abstract and the tangible. In Jungian psychology- the shadow contains those parts of ourselves that remain suppressed- denied- or are unfavourable aspects of the personality- 'the dark side of the self'. In Jung's words 'The shadow personifies everything that the subject refuses to acknowledge about himself [sic].' Another underlying influence in all of my works is the symbolism associated with Ancient Egyptian funerary culture. The simplicity of form and reserved stance of the figure represent one aspect of this bias- and is referenced by Ancient Egyptian artistic canons- Peter Tilley- 2020Join us on Saturday 24 October from 11am to 3pm for an extended opening with Peter Tilley.

MAY SPACE is proud to present it's fourth solo exhibition with Tania Lou Smith- Untitled (pusher)Untitled (pusher) 2019Pusher is a short- tragicomic video work. A harried woman in a bright red dress and stilettos bounds across a stadium pushing an empty stroller. The reason for her sense of urgency is unclear. Pusher is a wry take on parenting- anxiety- navigating public space and all of these things mixed together.Untitled (pram variations) 2020Bend. Lug. Heave. Pull. Flick. Adjust. Stretch. Squeeze. Slither. Untitled (pram variations) is a musical score. A set of scales practiced on an uncooperative instrument. A steel and canvas extension of the familial body. Poking- catching- jarring and pinching. This new series of photographic works is a playful response to the physicality of caring.Join us on Saturday 24 October from 11am - 3pm for an extended opening. Drinks will be provided.MAY SPACE has an active COVID Safety Plan.

Cone of Confusion is hitting the stage on November 5 at Freda's bar- Chippendale. There will be 2 separate performances with 2 different support acts.There are strictly 50 seated tickets for each show to allow for social distancing.Session 1: 7-9pm with support by BorokySession 2: 9:30-11:30pm with support by jetrioAbout Cone of ConfusionCone of Confusion is a Sydney-based group of musicians from different cultural and musical backgrounds. Gathering knowledge from personal experience and individual influences- this project blends musical curiosity through improvisation.Last year- this project culminated in a debut album (released September 2019) and a sold-out show at Venue 505. Experimental- creative- and theatrical- this music takes prog and jazz rock to another level.'Listen with deep awareness- the system has turned irreversibly corrupt. Not knowing where it is leading us to- the inevitable emancipation has begun.'Lillian Hearne: clarinet- sax- vocalsRemi Marchand: guitarJay Woo: electric double-bassJuan Carlos Negrete Lopez: drumsBoroky (Art Pop)Three years old- Boroky potters around the shallows of the collective unconscious collecting smooth stones and shells. Boroky dances with giants (which is quite messy)- battles dragons (don't we all)- and has cool mermaid friends who make Boroky a bit bashful. Some people think Boroky is getting too big to drink out of a bottle with a teat.JetrioJetrio was birthed from a communal disdain- for each member hated each other's voices. Sean hated Alex's voice- who hated Blain's voice- so the vicious cycle went. With the aid of musical instruments- they were able to eschew conversation altogether and instead make 'musics' of an 'acceptable variety'.
