Brick To Canvas
So a little earlier in the week, I read about the Brick To Canvas show happening at the Aarwun Gallery in Gold Creek. I missed the opening, but wanted to see what was hanging on the walls, particularly of former Canberra street artist E.L.K. (or Luke Cornish if you know him in person, I suppose).…

Vivid
As things turned out for my trip to Sydney for two zines fairs, I also managed to catch the opening night of Vivid. Much like Enlighten, but on a different scale, projectors and other installations shone in the overcast night. It was something I would have spent more time on exploring the city, but there…

Head 2 Head Zine Fairs
Last year, I went to two zine fairs in one day. The Other Worlds Zine Fair was organised in protest against one of the sponsors (being Transfield [Services/Holdings] who also manage the Nauru and Manus Island detention centres) backing the MCA, and thus the zine fair. I had to see both, because it is pointless…

Tocumwal Lane Party
So I heard about a group of graffiti painters were heading into the centre of the city to paint up one of the alleyways. Naturally I had to check it out, and test a new camera lens I bought. I kind of caught things in the middle of it all being painted up. I’m going…

Enlighten 2015
So last night, I caught up a friend down at Enlighten. We checked out the Night Noodle Markets, where we picked up some pork and chicken on sticks, dumplings and gyoza. The plan was to get some waffles on a stick, but there was a wait and the sun was setting. Overall, this year’s projects…

Graffiti Iceland
So before going on this trip, I wondered how much street art and graffiti there was in Iceland. Well it turns out there was plenty for me to see throughout my stay on the island. There were numerous tags around the capital Reyjavík, but also murals galore. Akureyri, had plenty of the same, even in…

Trip Log 7: Return
It’s been a long flight. My trip ended a couple of days ago. We had returned the car, and the energy that carried along the coast of this country had eventually left us. We had three days left in Reykjavik, but Josh and I were just spending our time counting them out. I spent the…

Trip Log 4: The North
The Museum of Icelandic Witchcraft and Sorcery was interesting and something I will address in further detail later. Afterwards, Josh and I rode up to Hotel Laugarhóll, a farm hotel, with as it would happen also featured the Sorceror’s Cottage. The cottage is a replica medieval cottage, made from driftwood, mud brick and a turf…

Trip Log 3: Snæfellsnes & the Vestfirðir
Okay, so the road trip has started off a bit crazy. Josh and I travelled through Snæfellsnes and the Vestfirðir areas. So far we have had to face rained-out gravel roads with a pockmarked lunar surface, driving through a highway that was under construction, picking up hitchhikers with destinations we couldn’t find on the map.…
