Ham Darroch
MAIN GALLERY | Pause for a Human

29 May - 4 July

Exhibition dates: 29 May – 4 July 2026
Opening event: 30 May 2026, 5-7pm | Artist Talk 4-5pm RSVP HERE

In Pause for a Human, Ham Darroch meditates on humanness with an unfaltering sense of curiosity and colour. Darroch occupies the Main Gallery with a series of larger-than life paintings that are sharply abstracted yet playful; inviting viewers to disentangle his puzzle-like compositions.

These expansive paintings are thoughtfully balanced with vintage bats collected over the years by Darroch. For catalogue essay writer, Yvette Dal Pozzo, these bats “become a contained site where Darroch’s interest in everyday ephemera and his painting practice meet in open conversation.” Here, Pause for a Human transforms the gallery space into an expansive site of human inquiry.
