Get down to Off The Kerb Gallery and support a good friend and artist Barek with his new show, and while you are there say hi to the lovely folks who do an amazing job putting these events together.
‘A World Of His Own’
An exhibition of my latest works opens October 21 Off The Kerb Gallery in Collingwood, Melbourne.
A series of paintings and sculptures documenting the people from a newly discovered island in Barek World. Home to a people steeped in mystery, deeply spiritual, yet not unlike ourselves. Intricate weaving, cloaks, beading, charms and spells are used to call upon spirits or the dead. From the tiniest beetle to the tallest mountain – all has a spirit that can be summoned in times of need…
‘He lives in a world of his own’ was a comment left on my school report card by a teacher. For a long time it had negative connotations but now I embrace it.
(I quite like Barek World and I don’t plan on coming back!)
