Whilst we were painting away next door and downstairs (which we’ll have pics up for soon), the very cool Platform72 was also holding an event – which we only actually found out about on the day!

With a whole bunch of art, both hung and live, the place was pumping throughout the afternoon – lots of people who were attending the Art Series event were also attending Platform 72s Future Beast show, and the whole vibe between the two was amazing. Andros, Tehror, Rebecca Murphy and Rotes were all painting away to some pretty cool tunes too – oh, and lots of free beer to be had – thanks!

Discovering new spaces is something that we love, and we have no idea how we hadn’t seen Platform72 before – how did that happen? Now that we have, though, we’re definitely going to be keeping an eye on what they’re up to. We met a couple of the people behind it all whilst we were there too, and they’re a diverse, creative and enthusiastic bunch of grand peeps doing some really cool things in Sydney – love it.

Our friend Jess Howell (whose amazing photos you can check out on her flickr) grabbed some seriously good shots for us from the opening and you can check them all out below. Thanks Jess!
