Giant donut dreams
The giant donut hangs above Sonido on Gertrude St. When I saw it, I dreamed of a swimming pool big enough to float a giant donut, for summer, and, well…so many other things. Thinking like this made me happy and sad and hopeful, all at the same time. Thank you giant donut…
Astrotwitch – Daisy Ducati, Fitzroy
Walked past this Astrotwitch pasteup today. Loving the bold colours against the grey wall…
If you’d ever wondered what Surrealism looks like in 2015 (as opposed to, say, the late 1910s and early 20s), this group show is well worth checking out. If you need more convincing, SWIFT and CTRL V have work in it…On at Brunswick Street Gallery from 29 May to 11 June. Want to meet the artists? Drop by on Friday May 29, from 6-9pm.

be free zine volume 8
Just got home after a long, cold day to find this zine in my mailbox. Be Free only made 50 copies, so I’m extra thrilled to have one. There’s lots of photos inside, a blog post of mine, and two by Alison Young AKA Images To Live By.  So happy to be in such excellent company, and part of Volume 8! Thank you Be Free!
senekt
Walking home from work today I found this simple but very striking Senekt piece. Just off Smith Street, Fitzroy…
living the dream
A sunny Saturday with one of my favorite people, both of us in tiki-fabulous attire. Buying Richie Fahey’s Waikiki Wahine at The Outre Gallery sale (in black faux bamboo frame, obviously), a new panama at Smart Alec, a wander through the Victorian Hot Rod Show, and gelato at Il Melograno. So happy…
cinerarium relocates to the wilde bar in fitzroy
Cinerarium is moving from 303 – and Northcote! 2015 screenings will be happening The Wilde Bar in Fitzroy. The 86 tram stops right out the front, so it’s still easy to get to. To attend screenings this year you need to have a membership, which can be yours for just $15. Get on it!
