Taylah Moore: GERMS

Overview

When most people think about germs, they think about antiseptic, hand-washing and just generally doing whatever they can to avoid them. When Taylah Moore thinks about germs, she's turning the topic of disease-causing bugs, bacteria and microorganisms into art.

Yes, one person's phobia is another's source of inspiration. Yes, her solo exhibition considers a subject most people avoid like the plague, and one that once helped cause the plague as well. Yes, GERMS will infest Love Love Studios, where Moore is a resident artist.

It's the next show to deck the halls and walls of the artist-run initiative, which has been a community favourite since it was established back in 2008 in Teneriffe, before moving to its current Milton digs in 2014. Not every gallery space resides above a skateboard store, after all; however that's not the only reason to make it along. Sadly, GERMS isn't just Love Love's latest artistic display — it's also its last.
