TIME RONE – Art Gallery of Western Australia

TIME RONE is a highly anticipated art installation that is set to open its doors once again, this time at the Art Gallery of Western Australia (AGWA). This immersive art experience transports visitors to a moment of suspended time, where they can truly indulge in the memories of mid-century Australia. The installation will be open to visitors from June 28th to 30th September, with 12 unique spaces to explore, including one new space exclusive to the AGWA installation, visitors can expect to be fully immersed in the experience. In addition to the immersive art experience, TIME RONE is expanding to offer an intimate dining experience that is exclusive to the Art Gallery of Western Australia installation. This presents a unique opportunity for visitors to indulge in a culinary experience that is truly one-of-a-kind. We were delighted for the custom carpets and flooring produced for the original TIME RONE Flinders St Melbourne installation to be reused in the AGWA installation that creates a sense of continuity between the two exhibitions. TIME RONE at AGWA promises to be a must-see event this winter!

The Artist and The Exhibition

GH Commercial were proud to invite some of our most valued clients to our VIP Event at Rone’s TIME exhibition. The event highlighted GH Commercial's ongoing relationship with RONE and how our products have been utilised in new and extraordinary ways. GH Commercial hope that this bespoke exhibition provides inspiration leading into your upcoming projects!

Finding the friction point between beauty and decay is a thread that runs through much of Rone’s work. This local Geelong-born artist paid homage to the architecture and history of the Geelong Gallery in 2021, we aided in bringing the exhibition to life with custom Designer Jet® carpets.

We are proud to continue to support Rone, with his latest exhibition Time, in Flinders Street Station Melbourne. Time is a nostalgic love letter to mid-century Melbourne and a tribute to one of the city’s great icons. This exhibit is Rone’s most ambitious project to date, a multisensory installation opening October 28th and features our carpet and hard flooring products.

Created and developed over the past three years, Time captures both the grand scale and character of the site and the minute detail of a period of Melbourne’s history long lost to progress. Time is inspired by an era when European migrants powered the city’s booming manufacturing industries. A glimpse into mid-century working-class life and an ode to the faded yet enduring beauty of this forgotten place.

About Rone

The Featured Product

To aid in telling the narrative, Rone explored various carpet designs and hard flooring that paid homage to the 1950’s and 60’s era. Having previously worked with our in-house design team, Rone is familiar with the custom capabilities of our Designer Jet® carpets and was able to achieve the pattern, colour and texture to recreate the spirit of the city’s past. The result, an immersive, memorable installation that leaves you feeling as though you've stepped back in time rather than into an exhibition.
