Benjamin Gallagher – The Wooden City at Maitland Regional Art Gallery

The Wooden City by Benjamin Gallagher is an exhibition of highly laboured, meticulously constructed forms drawn from his close observation of the built environment. Gallagher’s background in architecture and industrial design is deeply informed by decades working alongside his father as a heritage tradesman, specialising in the restoration of slate roofs — many of them across Maitland. This combination of formal study and hands-on craft underpins a body of work grounded in material knowledge, precision, and lived experience of the buildings we inhabit. Hosted at Maitland Regional Art Gallery.
The exhibition branding features Hardy. Its forms mimic those found in the pieces throughout the exhibition. Hardy is used alongside DIN 2014, the MRAG’s standard typefaces, used in several widths.
