BRENDAN HUNTLEY

OPENING FRIDAY 11 SEPTEMBER 6 - 9PM
EXHIBITION SAT 12 UNTIL SAT 26 SEPTEMBER



I went and checked this out on my way to the Gem last night.
(with no battery left in my camera) well worth a look. get along if you get a chance.

Apparently;

Brendan Huntley has exhibited across such spaces as the Carlton Hotel, Someday Gallery and Hell Gallery. 'Looking Forward' is the fifth solo exhibition from Brendan Huntley. Stemming from a background in graffiti, Brendan now divides his energy between painting and sculpture. When out of his studio, Brendan spends his time eating olives and fronting garage rock band Eddy Current Suppression Ring.

'Looking Forward' is an exhibition that presents Brendan's explorations into the human psyche. Working with ink, pastel, enamel, oil stick on paper and ceramic he has produced an assortment of vessels, infusing them with individual sensibilities.

Through sculptural and two-dimensional forms, multiple personalities are evoked and the facade of the everyday revealed. Brendan's works are concerned with the beauty of the mundane, dealing with the ordinary and what often lies beneath. Investigating our joys, fears, thoughts and observations on life.

Either through his lyrics or his artworks, Brendan is determined to voice his concerns. His work is marked by a compulsive truth and honesty that speaks of what it is to be human.

(or something like that...)
