Between Earth and Moon is N.Smith Gallery's Lunar New Year exhibition, marking the Year of the Horse through a considered gathering of artists from across and beyond the gallery program. Anchored in ideas of movement, transition, and vitality, the exhibition reflects the horse's symbolic association with energy, independence, and forward momentum.
Presented in celebration of Lunar New Year, Between Earth and Moon brings together artists represented by N.Smith Gallery alongside invited guest artists. The exhibition looks to the space between cycles and states of being, between grounding and aspiration, tradition and contemporary expression. Works move fluidly across material, cultural reference, and artistic approach, forming a dialogue that is both reflective and expansive.
Importantly, the exhibition embraces Australia's multicultural reality. While Lunar New Year is rooted in specific cultural traditions, Between Earth and Moon intentionally includes artists not of Asian descent, acknowledging Lunar New Year as a shared cultural moment within Australia's diverse social fabric. The exhibition proposes celebration as an act of inclusion, where collective participation honours tradition while allowing new interpretations to emerge, suspended between earth and moon.
