Opening at King St(rip-o-rama), lvl 1, 171 in da shity. 6-8pm. Gall 1-Darn Thorn “…conjures a world where bad science fiction meets Casper David Friedrich. The images are epic landscapes, where we find evidence of strange and supernatural goings on. This is a place where discarded clothing somehow seems to attract alien attention and blobs of glorious fluorescent goo ooze over gnarled, long dead tree limbs. Hysterical colour and a general sense of overblown theatricality…”
Gall 2-Natalie Ryan “…the image does not resemble a cadaver…”
Gall 3 – Tim Webster:Affective Urbanism “…[insert usual art wank here]…”
