Piece by Piece is a site-wide exhibition that celebrates the meticulously-repeated gesture, demonstrating how the practice of creating something line by line, stitch by stitch, or piece by piece, transcends distinctions between figurative and abstract, hobbyist and professional, historic and contemporary, and connects practitioners across temporal, cultural, and geographical boundaries.

For Superposition Lewers is hosting an evening of art, performance, music, workshops, and food within the grounds of Lewers: Penrith Regional Gallery. For Portal Penrith, the gallery gardens host live music and shadow puppetry from Bria McCarthy, with poetry reading and performance from Elyas Alavi in the Main Gallery, a beading workshop with Sione Mōnu, drop in workshop with local collective Potluck ARI, local 92WRLDJs throughout the event, and a tapas-style menu from Café at Lewers. The event is in conjunction with the major visual arts exhibition Piece by Piece, a free, site-wide project that celebrates the meticulously repeated gesture: the practice of making something line by line, stitch by stitch, piece by piece. With new commissions and key works from artists including Adrienne Doig, Rosalie Gascoigne, Antony Gormley, Julie Gough, Khaled Shabsabi, and what.
