“We” are Jane Polkinghorne and Sarah Newall, two Sydney based artists.

Our aim is to provide a free alternative project space that sits between the studio and the gallery, engaging with new experimental work at the interesting point between process and resolution.

We opened with our first show, +1, on Friday 1st February, 2013 from 6-8pm.

Our garage started out like this….

Dirty untidy garage full of stuff

After a couple of weeks scraping back render, patching up mortar, cementing, sanding and painting Marrickville Garage now looks like this … all cleaned up and awaiting its first show ‘n’ tell.
