Hurben By Now

ReFace on Sunday Arts

ABC’s Sunday Arts program recently played a segment on our ReFace project from the last Perth International Arts Festival.

The ReFace website is still going strong, keep posting your pics!

ololo on Stateline

ABC’s Stateline recently interviewed us about the Condor Tower Car Park project and the upcoming launch. Was good to see how expansive the space looks on film. Maybe some of you artists can see your head on there?

Hurben’s Rorschachs

In 2005, Hurben went on a rampage and adhered his abstract paintings to the streets of Perth. The name ‘rorschach’ only came about in the second wave of paintings which were all symmetrical. The paintings have been described as flora and fauna which have been technologically modified. If you were lucky enough to be one of the few people to have been taken on a late-night tour of the artworks by Hurben himself, you know his incentive wasn’t vandalism, but to conjur thought and imagination in the general public.

If there is that much room for advertising, why can’t a portion of it be for artwork?
