As you know, we’re big fans of seeing artists take the plunge and put on their very first show. It can be an often nerve racking experience for someone to finally take that step, but usually it is just the first of many rewarding shows that they will have throughout their lifetime. We were pretty privileged to
READ MORESydney powerhouse Numskull brought the heat for his latest solo show ‘Survival Tactics’ at the Tate last week.

READ MOREWe’ve been enjoying Melbourne street artist Fezwitch’s work around the traps for some time now; his clever, witty pieces to be found right across the city.

READ MOREThis is one of those shows that you go to, look back on and say “I went to her first show” with a certain amount of pride at having done just that. Those who have been following Mikaelas work since she started putting it out there have been waiting for this one for quite some

We’re
READ MORENate Gamble has been tattooing, painting walls and drawing for many yeas, and his illustrative skills are second to none. Every time we walk past one of his pieces on the street here in Melbourne, we stop for a second to admire its meticulous line work – notably, his lettering work on the wall of
READ MORESydney artist Bennett has been on our radar for some time – we actually interviewed him before his last show last year. He emailed us over the weekend with news of his next show that opens up this coming Saturday, “Can We Fly”. We’re big fans of Bennetts multilayered work, in his interview he said
