Art with James
Mr. Squiggle Exhibition
Local hipsters Briony Stewart and Campbell Whyte kick arse. On Monday night their Squiggle Off exhibition opened at Keith & Lottie in Northbridge, and 90% of their shit sold. The other 10% won't last long.
The works all came from their clever website Mr. Squiggle, where Briony and Campbell take turns submitting "squiggles" for the other to turn into a polished art pieces: Nintendo homages, Degas-esque ballet dancers, body paintings...
Printed onto canvas and framed with the original squiggles, the pieces speak flatteringly of a great concept and unique, quirky dialogues.
The exhibition is at the Keith & Lottie gallery (open 11am-6pm at 276 William St, Northbridge -- just behind Central Tafe) from now until the 24th of May, and there is talk of a later-in-the-year London show where the Metro newspaper ran an unexpected feature article a few weeks ago.
Of course, check out the original website at www.squigglepage.blogspot.com.
