Creative Tanks
In last week’s post I briefly mentioned the Creative Tanks event that was occurring for the Carnival of Flowers this month. I was also involved in the Creative Tanks event last year. It’s strangely nostaglic to be completing the same event, thinking about where I was twelve months ago. For 2011, I certainly wasn’t in

The manager, the artist, the all of it
The last few weeks have been busy. So busy, in fact, that I’ve really got to keep on making works. This will hopefully be a quick post, where I will recap on some recent interesting events and discuss what’s on the horizon.

Adventures in Papergirl, now complete.
P-p-papergirl! A due date that had seemed quite far away at the start of the year got very close very quickly (and was also pushed fowards a month…or am I losing my mind?) but I got what I wanted to get into the exhibition and that was held on Friday, 1st June 2012. It was a lot

Adventures in Papergirl: A discovery of B-sides
Somewhere in the beginning of February, made. Creative Space [sic] put out a call-out for yet another fantastic project (and believe me, there are several). It was Papergirl! And I was intrigued by the concept of exhibition + free and randomised distribution of artworks + bicycles. At the end of February, I hadn’t gotten many works out for

Begin anew.
I never got around to the why of all those mushrooms. Those were used in a frantic fortnight of late, late nights and the hysteria you develop after days of reduced sleep. Looking back, I am glad I have photos as it’s all a blur of stitch, stitch, stitch, with brief intermissions when Micheal, the owner, wandered

Crows Nest
I went up to Crows Nest Art Gallery yesterday and installed 4 of my works for their latest exhibition, Something Only We Know. Some of these works are a bit older, and I was astounded by where my head was then, and how connected these works are to periods in my life. I don’t think I have

Suzkel Harjester: a recipe for artworks.
Timms’ Introduction What is the difference between an everyday object and a work of art? An exhibition at the Southern Queensland Institute of TAFE by local artist collective Suzkel Harjester attempts to describe the difference between the two in the recent exhibition Timms’ Regret. Their answer, as I understood it; is nothing. To
