As Rone’s NSW debut, Hendrick’s Gin Presents: Another TIME by Rone, brings together an immersive exhibition where art and curious flavours collide, creating a layered, sensory experience like no other.
To celebrate the launch of Another Hendrick’s – the new permanent expression from the world’s delightfully peculiar premium gin – Hendrick’s Gin has partnered with acclaimed Australian contemporary artist Rone to present Another TIME, a free, two-day-only exhibition on 8 and 9 May 2026 inviting audiences to step inside a transportive world where art, atmosphere and flavour collide.
Still infused with the iconic rose and cucumber Hendrick’s Gin is recognised for, Another Hendrick’s is also layered with bright uplifting notes of orange blossom and balanced with deeper, richer flavours of velvety cacao. It celebrates Hendrick’s signature curiosity and delightfully unusual character, whilst also offering a duality that mirrors the unexpected and imaginative spirit Hendrick’s is known for.
Marking Rone’s debut showing in New South Wales, Hendrick’s Gin Presents: Another TIME by Rone will transform Sydney gallery COMA into a richly layered environment that celebrates another side of Hendrick’s wondrous personality – just as Another Hendrick’s does.
Known internationally for his hauntingly beautiful large-scale portraits set within abandoned and forgotten spaces, Rone’s work explores the intersection of darkness and light, black and white, and the emotional space between past and present.
For this special exhibition, Rone has reimagined his iconic Backstage experience from TIME, the sell out show that drew over 140,000 attendees through Flinders St in Melbourne from its 2022 showing and over 60,000 in Perth in 2024.
Designed to evoke the sensation of stepping onto a stage, the installation gently shifts the viewer’s perspective, revealing, almost too late, that they themselves have become part of the scene, while subtly weaving in nods to Another Hendrick’s – inviting guests to the unusual and curious details of the newest expression.
Commenting on the collaboration with Hendrick’s and the Backstage experience Rone explains, “I’ve always been drawn to contrast – the push and pull between opposing elements and the emotion that sits in between – and Another Hendrick’s captures that same duality,” he said.
“The interplay of the bright, uplifting notes of the orange blossom with deeper, richer flavours of cacao inspired me to expand on the installation – which I originally created where nothing is quite what it first seems – to transform the gallery into a space that feels layered, immersive and unexpected, much like the gin itself,” said Rone.
“Another Hendrick’s was created to explore contrasts – bright citrus and floral notes balanced with the depth of cacao – and Rone’s artistic approach speaks to that same duality,” says Hendrick’s Head of Marketing Jonathan Sully.
“His ability to craft immersive, layered experiences inspired how we imagined the gin’s character being translated into the exhibition. It’s a perfect marriage of creativity, curiosity and the delightfully unexpected to celebrate the launch of Another Hendrick’s.”
Guests who secure tickets to the free, limited-run exhibition will also enjoy a complimentary Another Hendrick’s Spritz – an elevated twist to a typical spritz blending Another Hendrick’s with Peach Liqueur, Prosecco, and ice-cold soda water, finished with signature cucumber slices and an orange twist.
Rone (Tyrone Wright) is one of Australia’s most acclaimed contemporary artists, known internationally for his large-scale portraits that transform abandoned and forgotten spaces into emotive, immersive environments.
His work explores the intersection of beauty and decay, light and darkness, and the emotional space between past and present. Rone has exhibited widely in Australia and abroad, with landmark shows including TIME, and continues to push the boundaries of street art and experiential installation.
