Dord Burrough: Feelers

It's fey, trippy and the type of artwork Brisbane should be proud of.

Overview

When Georgia, aka Dord Burrough, doesn't paint, she babysits. And when she's doing neither, she's existing as one of the cruisiest, coolest and most genius artists that's ever spawned from Brisbane. Having shown her work in dozens of underground galleries - in both Australia and Berlin - she's an export worth keeping a creative eye on.

For now she's home in the sweet state of Queensland, and will be showcasing her latest work at Ryan Renshaw Gallery for one month. With pieces that border on romance, and stray into fields of gore, this selection of Burroughs' art is one easily posed through a psychedelic lens. The fey, pale works of Dord Burrough's make for a viewing experience that induces squeamishness as much as thought. Aquatic tones upon pastel sprays, in movements that droop and drape, yet strangely stick to canvas, her art pays gentle homage to alchemy. In lay man's terms, it's trippy as jump rope.

Don't miss out on seeing the Dord Burrough sometime this month - if you leave it to the last minute, you risk missing a free passage into a psychedelic unknown.
