Our mate Hancock put us on to this one, and we’re glad he did – always great to see a cool show at one of our favourite inner city Galleries, No Vacancy – and what a show!

“New links between audience and artist will be created through interpretations of this very concept; Half.

The initial idea came from imagining what a piece of art would look like at the halfway stage of creation and how you would measure where half really is?

This idea evolved into giving the artists no restraints in interpreting Half. For instance they can; collaborate halfway with another artist, visually represent half, chop their finished artwork in half, the limitless choices are theirs to make.

Half Exhibition has incorporated a large spectrum of art forms, including; graffiti art, sound art, graphic design, jewellery art, photography, visual art, poetry, typography, illustration and more.”

We can see a lot of great artists names in that list, especially a whole bunch from Perth – we’ve actually seen some of the stuff that Hancock has been working on for it and, damn. We just know that the rest of its going to be just as good as well. Check out this great preview video as well –

It really does look like like a great group show, and we’re looking forward to checking it all out!
