Miso: Bright Night Sky
The acclaimed street artist shows off her intricate side in this new exhibition.
Overview
Melbourne may be the place where artist Miso hangs up her boots, but her street artwork and highly-acclaimed exhibitions have taken her all over the world. Her latest exhibition at Backwoods Gallery, Bright Night Sky, features intricate maps of all the places her work has taken her, from Tokyo to New York and everywhere in between.
These maps are made up from many tiny pinpricks into white paper. Rather than defining these maps around significant structures, they highlight memories of the artist, taking us off the main road to explore a more personal journey. The hammering process to create these artworks is also similar to Miso’s recent tattoo work, which you can check out in her limited release zine Miso: Home-Made Tattoos + Polaroids.
The zine will be available at the gallery as part of the Bright Night Sky exhibition. The chance to see Miso’s delicate yet powerful work in her home town should not be missed.
