Alair Pambegan + Samuel Hodge at Alaska Projects

Overview

Two new exhibitions will be opening at Alaska Projects on April 29. The first features the work of Alair Pambegan. Originally from Aurukun in far north Queensland, Pambegan works out of a studio in Sydney, using ochre and charcoal to create compelling works that reflect the landscape of his home.

The second is a collection of photographs from Samuel Hodge, Buzzkill. Drawing from 15 years of practice, Hodge has put together works from his archive that are arranged not according to chronology but according to their potential inspiration for future projects, and for their representation of innovative approaches to image production. During the past few years, Hodge has been a regular contributor to Butt magazine and, in 2009, published his book Pretty Telling I Suppose, which was distributed internationally.

Opening night will be held at Alaska Projects on April 29 between 6 and 8pm. The exhibitions will run till May 10.
