Make Me Feel Some Type of Way

The art series that gives you something. Something that nobody else can give.

Overview

Make Me Feel Some Type of Way is an art exhibit that features a hell of a lot less Jamiroquai than we expected and wanted, but redeems itself in being a legitimite, visual funk odyssey. The series is  a collection of work by Amy Commins, a Brisbane creative whose featured work at Jugglers, Bleeding Hearts Gallery and a bundle  of more local, underground spaces, and has pulled together something quite picturesque and beautiful for Witchmeat Gallery.

In an exploration of why the aesthetic pleases us in a natural environment, Make Me Feel Some Type of Way uses the genre of European and Australian colonial landscape painting to construct answers through stark juxtaposition. By representing recognisable landscape paintings, Commins highlights human will and desire to master nature. The exhibit that pulls together the topics and notions toyed with by Commins through categories of landscape aesthetics and notions of the sublime, picturesque and beautiful in a means that is as visually absurd as it is beautiful.

Head to the middle of West End suburbia – 80 Hampstead Road – and check out this strangely rich series.
