We saw this great gem of posted up by the guys over at Stupidkrap this morning (which, if you haven’t got on board already, is a pretty damn cool site out of Sydney that you should check out) – and it looks like it’d be an interesting one to check out. We love seeing process work, or work that sinks its teeth into representation of an artists actual practices, so the fundamental idea behind this show really intrigues us.
Curated by stencil and acrylic artist Paul Davis (his first curated show), a Sydney based artist represented by Tim Olsen Galleries, his brief for the show was to get “20 artists to create one work each, in any medium and A2 in size, that would reveal something about themselves or their artistic practice.”
With a whole bunch of works in different ranges of mediums, this is a show that attempts to cut through to the core of how these artists, both emerging and established, use their processes to create the work that they are most passionate about.
