This is what happens when you have so many balls in the air – whilst we were putting together the interview that we did with Kirpy a few minutes ago (yep, that’ll be up today!) we went to link to the actual event information … and, to some dismay (we hate missing stuff!) realised that we hadn’t put it up yet … doh!

Kirpy has been a powerhouse of creativity lately, and, as he said on his tumblr,  “I’ve been working on all new pieces for the last five months for this show – featuring stencils, paintings, photography, paper cuts and etchings.

Of course, Kirpys show this Thursday at 1000 Pound Bend show deserves a great writeup and lots of attention – but, because we’ve have already written a few paragraphs today lauding the artist, we’ll leave it up to the press release and video, from the talented hands of Carl Allison, to do just that …

“A psychiatric disorder characterised by obsessive thoughts and compulsive actions, such as meticulously cutting out little bits of paper, painting graffiti, and the need to explore the city and world around you.

Melbourne based artist Kirpy presents an exhibition of all new stencils,
paintings and photographs depicting the obsessions and compulsions of one artist.”
