Overview

Bringing together ten Australian artists who are in touch with their own shortcomings, this exhibition re-examines notions of success and failure through a bit of image, a bit of text and a lot of irony. Anastasia Klose channels The Nanny in her Film for my Nanna, while Emma White cleverly tracks a Saturday night and the nocturnal descent of reason in Decision Time, while Joan Ross ridicules the power of one of the ugliest states of emotion - jealousy - in a ludicrous, fluorescent soft-sculpture. I’m worse at what I do best features video, sculpture and painting and the opening night will see the launch of an accompanying publication including 25 short stories penned by arts journo, Andrew Frost.
