The first time I saw the Miscreants group show, the Off The Kerb team had barely begun to hang. Even so, Steve Gavan’s vibrant digital prints caught my eye immediately. Great to see them (and some red dots) on the walls yesterday.

WRDSMITH – laneway typewriters
Yes, these WRDSMTH pieces have been up awhile now, but it was nice to see them again. Still intact, without shadows or parked vans or people with selfie sticks to dodge. Sometimes its the little things…
Kranky – Eliminate Threat
A sunny Melbourne day, perfect for strolling thru a quiet non spray street art lane – and finding a recent (and yet undamaged) Kranky installation. Fingers crossed it stays that way…
David
Michelangelo’s David like you’ve never seen him before – look closely! Great pasteup by luv.sic.art
craffiti : sayraphim lothian @ no vacancy fed square
Craffiti is where Melbourne’s street art scene meets soft sculpture. Sayraphim Lothian has been inspired by a very diverse group of artists, and has reinterpreted their stickers, stencils, aerosol and pasteups. There are 30+ works in the show, artists include Astrotwitch, Barek, Braddock, Dean Sunshine (Land of Sunshine), Diabolical Robot, Erin Greer, General Artist Philb, Junky Projects, Legojacker, Lifetime Sticky Fingers, Malarkey Art, Putos, Psalm, Steen Jones, Suki, and Trollz B Trollin. This thought provoking exhibition is on at the No Vacancy Project Space Federation Square until April 19. My favourite (although so hard to choose) was the Troll, after Trollz B Trollin.

Me: LOL
city ghost
Delighted to meet City Ghost yesterday – great collab by Barek and Jonny Arnold.
never ending : creature creature @ no vacancy gallery
Never Ending is a beautiful mix of ancient Japan, contemporary style, hip hop and skate culture. Creature Creature’s work flows gently through the space and appears on prints, decks, ply and vinyl toys. Sadly I missed the opening, but enjoyed having the gallery all to myself today. On at No Vacancy (QV) until Sunday, Feb 14 – and yes, the quarter pipe is for sale…
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…
