You Missed It: ‘It’s Broke, Don’t Fix It’
Our very good pal Dougal Gorman put together quite a collection of Australia’s best young artists, and we hosted them downstairs at the Monster Children Gallery, Sydney.
Luciana Smith, Anoushka Mondraty, Sammy Jo, Brodie Cullen, Dougal Gorman, Mia Kidis, Sam Stephenson - and curated by our best bud, Dougal Gorman. Like I said: the best. A wise Rachel Brown once said, ‘the best thing that you can do with your time on this earth is to make connections with people and show up for people and stuff, now shut up I have to go play this Water From Your Eyes Show,’ or something like that, and there is no better way to do that than to connect with your arts community through a shared observation of independent creators’ output. It’s a beautiful, beautiful thing, showing out for the community - and especially when the art being observed is actually good and not no uptown high brow slop. You’ll find no pretentious nepo baby Pollock rip offs here - nay, you shall only find the strange and beautiful makings of Australia’s young creators. Here’s what you missed.
