As you may know by now Sean and I were lucky enough to be in the Villain Store Cut Outs show.
For this we had to create a piece of artwork in cut out format in either, paper, wood or mixed media. As we’re both digital artists (well more that than anything else in our repertoire) we had our pieces printed out and mounted into foam-core by the very helpful Matt (Stink) from Visy.
Taking a step backwards into our past inspirations we both produced pieces with an Asian flair. Mine, a geisha and Sean’s, Monkey Magic fighting a demon.
Everyone had their own unique interpretation of the cut out theme with pieces ranging from sculpted wood and metal to 2D plywood, and even a pile of dirt was brought in for GhostPatrol’s contribution.
Opening night was huge, with a great turnout, lots of beer (Massive thanks to Julian for dashing out on a beer run after the sponsors drinks were all consumed.) and most of the pieces were sold.
As usual, Per Square Meter were brilliant hosts and extended way more than their fair share of hospitality.
For those of you who couldn’t make it to opening night, the show is on until the 8th of June.
