New South Vol. 2 presents recent examples of sculpture and installation art from across Southern Australasia. Bringing together an intergenerational group of 17 artists, the exhibition offers a snapshot of current sculptural practice and the ideas shaping it today.

A key theme of the exhibition is inter-relations, what happens between objects, materials, built environments and viewers. The artworks are presented together in shared space, allowing them to interact, overlap and influence one another. These encounters invite visitors to notice new connections and meanings as they move through the exhibition.

New South Vol. 2 is a follow-up of two earlier exhibitions hosted by Hazelhurst Arts Centre, South (2014), which featured artists from Australia, Mexico and South Africa, and New South (2024), which focused on contemporary painting from southern Australia.
