Brisbane Trip
So I spent the last week visiting family and a couple of friends in Queensland. And take some time out to draw and write some things. I was also in Brisbane and took a few photos of the headline exhibition at QAG and GOMA – The Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art. The show features…

New Camera
I recently purchased a new digital, swapping out my old Canon 400D for a Fujifilm X-T1. Since there’s a nearly nine-year difference between the cameras, the long overdue change is massive. And now that I have a camera system that it lighter and a little more compact, I can take more and more photos. Whether…

Ink Remix
It’s near the end of my time off and I finally managed to check out Ink Remix. Featuring artists from Taiwan, Hong Kong and mainland China. I was expecting to see some calligraphy, which were the subject of video installations by Hung Keung and Pend Hung-Chih. Two pieces a really stood out for me. First…

Sydney
Last weekend I went to Sydney to hold a table for the ACT Comic Meet at the Manly Zine Fair. I went a day early to check out the Friends of Leon Gallery to check out the Justyna Kisielewicz exhibition that just opened. However, I didn’t get any photos, because there was an official photoshoot…

It was a crazy week of camping, mosquitos, idyllic island life, mad long cycling commutes, kayaki, protesting about kayaki, and dragging a kayak through low tide mangrove mud. It was also art galleries, decent food, obscenely warm days, board game…

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…
