Stocksy, General Assembly and Frankie Magazine have teamed up with a group of local illustrators, designers and artists for an amazing night of art illustration, photography and mixed media. 'Tiger Snakes and Six Packs' - a celebration and exploration of all things Aussie. Opens this Thursday night in Melbourne and yes free beer will be involved!
The artworks have been created using a gallery from Stocksy - a photographic stock library, and will be sold via silent auction on the night. Part proceeds going to the charity The Song Room - encouraging people through creativity.
My piece 'Born Sandy Devotional' named after a Triffid song and album of the same name. For those non Australians the Triffids were an alternative 80's rock and pop band hailing from Western Australia, where I was grew up. I've always loved this album title.
Artists include:
Inaluxe, Carla Hackett, Ellen Porteus, Alice Oehr, Neryl Walker, Megan Palmer, Luke Taaffe, Matt Dampney, Keil Tillman, Dave Homer, Kyme Farley, Electric Confetti, Lauren Nicholson, Joel Pringle
Opening at 6pm, followed by a panel discussion with: Kylie Lewis - Of Kin, Tess McCabe, Matthew Henry - Oak and Ink, Brianna Wettlaufer - Stocksy United and Nuno Silva - Stocksy United.
