SUBMISSION DATE EXTENDED - FINAL SUBMISSIONS BY SUNDAY 26 OCTOBER

Presence is Tyger Gallery’s Christmas group show, running from 5 December 2025 to 3 January 2026. The show celebrates still life and figurative works exploring presence, perception, and the quiet beauty of observation.

We invite artists from across Australia to submit works for consideration. Presence will bring together a diverse collection of paintings, drawings, printmaking, mixed media, ceramics, and small sculptural works that reflect moments of stillness, depth, and attention to the world around us.

Selected works will be exhibited throughout the busy summer holiday period, giving visitors the chance to experience (and purchase) original art at one of our most popular times of year.

We also use our group shows to discover and support new talent. Many artists who now exhibit regularly at Tyger first came to us through open-call shows like this one — so if you’re keen to see your work on Tyger’s walls, this is a wonderful opportunity.
