ARTISTS

  • Tinky | @tinkysonntag

    Tinky gathers and assembles vintage or abandoned objects with miniscule characters and uses wordplay to create humorous dioramas in non-spaces…think gutters, holes-in-the-wall in streets, buildings, laneways and curated gallery spaces.

  • Keob | @keob._

    Father, mentor, artist…Jakeob’s art balances all that makes him who he is, mixing art forms from traditional to graffiti with the beauty of Mother Earth and the power of culture.

  • Sewersidedream3r | @sewersidedream3r

    Local writer and graff artist Sewersidedream3r will be hitting the cans and throwing up some designs with a mix of 3D, simple and character work.

  • 085c3n3 | @085c3n3

    A multidisciplinary artist who explores the interrelationship between inspired nostalgia and the viewer role in creating a sense of place, recontextualising redundant objects, discarded machines and antiquated artmaking methods.

  • Alanya van de Wiel | @alanya_vdw

    Alanya’s feminine artworks span painting, illustration, ceramics and sculptural art forms to explore themes around ritual, spirituality, mythology, symbolism and human psychology.

  • Michael Pederson | @miguelmarquezoutside

    Michael is often drawn to overlooked aspects of the environment. That's often where passers-by stumble upon his humorous miniature installations, made from materials such as wood, perspex, cardboard and paint.

  • CRISP | @crispstreetart

    CRISP's pop culture socio-political mash ups and visual messaging through bombing stencils, sculptures, stickers and paste-ups jolt the mind from the mundane commute to challenging and unorthodox.

  • Ben Kenning | @ben_kenning

    Ben Kenning is painter and mixed media artist . “I see myself as a conduit and reflection of the time and space I occupy. My art, is really not mine at all, or it's something shared, its a confluence of internal and external experiences, impressions and influences and my role in the expression of these things through my art, is as a co-creator.”

  • Family of Friendly Monsters | @familyoffriendlymonsters

    “My work playfully toes the line between whimsy and the downright strange; mashing beings in a blender and painting the result. What I have come to find is that there might just be a friendly monster in all of us… a little weirdness when we peel back the layers. Painting walls in public spaces, I hope to make freakiness more familiar. Using explosive bursts of colour, my work offers an escape.”

  • Pixelsbyjax | @pixelsbyjax

  • Jenny McCracken | @ jennymccrackenartist

    Jenny McCracken has a broad range of experience across many mediums; she creates 3D pavement art, trompe l’oeil (trick of the eye) murals, portraits, visual minutes, commissioned works and sculptures to name but a few. In addition to exhibiting and teaching art workshops, Jenny is also Australia’s most highly awarded pavement artist.

  • Gab Rigg Art | @gabriggart

  • Houl's early street art involved covering signs with stickers, cladding with paste and blank brick with aerosol. His ongoing 'treasure hunt' cardboard and corflute pieces are smaller, more personal artworks.

    Houl | @Houlart

  • Galactic Lego All Stars | @galacticlegoallstars

  • Jen Denzin | @Jen_denzin_

    Colour, plastic, drinking straws, cable ties, tacky mementos are materials Jen uses to construct gaudy assemblages and vibrant environments. The outcomes of her work are informed by historical meeting points and the interplay between people-groups and cultures.
