Overview

Cigarettes and Soda Pop. Art and fashion. Shooting Gallery and Emma Bertoldi. Friends and portraits. Are these not the most charming double acts you’ve heard recently? Can you in all honesty say they’re not even slightly intriguing and/or appealing to you?

As Brisbane based Emma Bertoldi’s first solo exhibition, Cigarettes and Soda Pop is a showcase of both her talent and group of friends. Created in her unique style that combines graffiti, stencil and illustration, Emma has captured her relationships in art and invited us to peruse them with her. Meant partly as a way to highlight the close friendships she has, it’s also intended to illustrate the voyeuristic nature of humans who love getting sneak peeks into other people’s lives (Facebook stalking anyone?).

Opening night falls this Friday and also doubles as a launch for her new clothing label Donnie Danger. Similar to her art, she has used this medium to emphasize her passions i.e. old school comics and tattoos.

As a great advocate of online stalking, I feel attending Cigarettes and Soda Pop would be the next step up. Would could be more invigorating then stalking the lives of people who are right next to you!
