Lose yourself in our largest gallery space, showcasing an eclectic range of art installations and performative and sculptural works by local artists. This unique space has windows on two sides, allowing the work to be viewed from the outside looking in at any time the building is open. Entering the space and interacting with the artist and their work is welcomed when the artist is present. Exhibitions, projects, and residencies in this location will run on one- to three-month intervals.
Ledge Gallery is located on the +15 level, west of City Hall, overlooking Centre Court.
For When You’re Feeling Blue
Moey Blanco
ARTIST STATEMENT
Several years have passed since I decided to become a full-time artist, a choice that has led me through countless places, lessons, and transformations. This journey has been filled with both thrilling highs and difficult lows. Along the way, through sheer luck, I’ve made some of my closest friends—though I also lost some of these deep rooted bonds due to pride and immaturity. The pain of heartbreak and loss has played its part too, forcing me to grow in ways I hadn’t expected.
There were long days that felt endless, times I felt adrift, as if I’d lost my direction. But when the storm passed, it always felt like reaching the top of a mountain—hard-won and deeply satisfying. In the end, each harvest has made the hard work feel worthwhile. Being an artist has shaped all of these moments in ways I can’t quite put into words.
These days it’s been quite a rare opportunity to slow down and be introspective as deadlines have to be met and life somehow just keeps getting busier. Now, during this residency at The Ledge Gallery, I’m taking the chance to slow down and reflect on the last five years and reflecting a portion of it through this new body of work.
