Hole Hearted

Overview

"Ideas mostly come from a compulsion to layer colour, repeat triangles... and ultimately to express the un-ending parade of emotions life marches you through,'' Laura Horrocks says, referring to the work in her debut exhibition, Hole Hearted. Exploring femininity and angst through a series of sherbet-hued nudes with a geometric element, Horrocks’ work is abstract but her message is clear.

With a series of amazing supporting artists: Charlie Hillhouse, Luke Kidd, Dominique Elliot, Alex Winters, Holly Ryan, Jack Pemble, Tom Dolmau and Martha Poggioli, Hole Hearted is one of those unmissable exhibitions that people always talk about and you wish you went to.

The opening night is this Friday at 6pm, and after your eyes have taken in the views, walk down to Magic Mountain for the official Hole Hearted afterparty, with a DJ set from Die! Die! Die!’s Lachlan. If your heart’s not made whole after Hole Hearted and a set from the kiwi punk's best, then I don’t know what else will cure you.
