OPENING NIGHT: “Accumulating” by Michael Steele (at Gorker Gallery)

Posted in EPIC, Gorker Gallery, art, design, exhibition, illustration, opening night, party with tags , , , on February 8, 2010 by Pete

Last thursday night HYPEMUCH attended the opening of Michael Steele’s solo show “Accumulating”, which is being held at the always awesome exhibition space, Gorker Gallery.

-

Michael Steele’s latest “cluster” series is like an acid-induced-brain-explosion, where all your child hood memories flood back to your frontal lobe in an instant. Using iconic characters/stuff from video games, movies, commercials and everything in between, while all being executed using a huge variety of  mediums… there’s definitely a little bit of everything in this series.

The Exhibition runs until Sunday 21 February…

Gorker Gallery Opening Hours:
3PM – 7PM Wednesay – Friday
11AM – 7PM Saturday & Sunday

Taken from his website, this is what Michael had to say about his latest series:

“As an artist based out of Melbourne Australia, I have had a keen interest in anything creative from a very young age. Over the years I have explored various mediums and styles such as, illustration, oil painting and digital media.

With this new series of artworks that I have created as part of the “Cluster” series, I have been able to explore various styles, techniques and mediums by portraying what I see around me and then present these influences artistically. These influences that I have portrayed come from various avenues, such as the media, memories, people, textures, technology and so on.

A Cluster to me resembles images or objects grouped together to form something larger. I feel this gives images or objects a stronger presence, rather than being displayed by themselves, creating a much more dynamic experience for the viewer.

I am constantly exploring new avenues within this theme.”
