Emerging Artists Take Over the South Wharf Promenade Windows
If we were to play the world association game with Instagram hashtags and I said "South Wharf Promenade", it would be normal for one to respond with: #flossy, #theglamorouslife, #cocktailswiththegirls or #richkidsofinstagram. On Sunday that all changed, as some of Melbourne's finest emerging artists began what will be a just-shy-of-a-month-long residency in a group of vacant window boxes.
Overview
If we were to play the world association game with Instagram hashtags and I said "South Wharf Promenade", it would be normal for one to respond with: #flossy, #theglamorouslife, #cocktailswiththegirls or #richkidsofinstagram. What might not immediately present is #artinaction, or rather, #melbourneartiststakeovercargosheds.
On Sunday that all changed, as some of Melbourne's finest emerging artists began what will be a just-shy-of-a-month-long residency in a group of vacant window boxes on the Yarra River and Duke's Walk, for the eyeballing pleasure of the public. Between them, the whipper snippers have produced work for ROOKIE magazine and Kimbra, modelled for Kinki Gerlinki, and exhibited everywhere from the Melbourne Art Fair to Chapter House Lane.
Renee Cosgrave, Minna Gilligan, Andrzej Nowicki, Nick Ryrie, Raphael Rizzo and Rhys Mitchell are their names, making South Wharf better one cargo container at a time is their game (I'm trying ok).
