Faktorei: Glenn Brady

Overview

Lust For Life Tattoo is a venue showcasing huge potential. What a combination of goodness – a tattoo parlour, a gallery and espresso bar (which includes a micro bakery, producing tasty bagels and sweet treats) all in the one spot! On top of all this an amazing new exhibition of local artist, Glenn Brady’s work.

Titled ‘Faktorei’ the exhibition explores the underbelly of suburban Australian life. It explores the juxtapositions that exist on the outskirts of Brisbane, where fuming factories sit alongside blocks of small wooden houses where children play in the streets.

These are not paintings of grand places. Brady's work instead focuses on the often unnoticed local locations such as  main roads, car yards, video shops and fast food joints of Brisbane. Through his work Brady often finds the story beyond the banal.

Having been practicing art since 1993, Brady  has had quite the journey. His career to date features his creative involvement in over twenty local and national exhibitions. Faktorei is the next major instalment in his journey.

Catch him exploring strong themes in a bold style with his latest exhibition. Plus, you can grab an expresso while you're at it!
