"Jardine creates versions of domesticity that we recognise but can never really reach. The idealised gatherings are fantasies of what could be."
- Zada Hanmer
AITY Gallery is proud to present Live, Love, Lobster, a solo exhibition by Kyle Jardine at the Old Biscuit Mill in Woodstock.
The exhibition treats the domestic interior as a structure for gathering rather than a backdrop. Tables, chairs and patterned surfaces operate as organising devices through which bodies would align, suggesting community as something assembled through arrangement rather than memory.
Across dense layers of acrylic, objects lose hierarchy and merge into a collective field. The paintings function as rehearsals for intimacy – staged environments where belonging is maintained through repeated gestures of sharing, proximity and attention.
