Smirnoff Start Pure Gallery

Nana’s work on the outside of the building.

Drippy tubes and bags filled with paints were all a part of the interactive art making concept.

Science lab styles, punters were encouraged to make their own piece to hang on the wall.

Nana’s bottle design.

Brad’s bottle design.

Dedication, a work in progress on Photographer Josephine Ki’s arm.

Nana’s Octopuses. Left one’s finished, right one is a work in progress.

Some more of Nana’s work on display.

Both artists have drinks named after them, drinks are to be sold around Surry Hills bars over the next few months, pretty rad, right?

Artist Simon Lovelace owns Blank Space Gallery, he was in his man cave, tinkering with his bike… yeah! My kinda guy!

I managed to get invited to the media launch of the interactive Smirnoff Start Pure Gallery tonight. I’d checked it out earlier today as I was helping Nanami get her work to the gallery, but by launch time it was a completely different (rad!) set-up to what I’d seen earlier.

After 2 cocktails I was goneski’s so I hit the eject button before running the risk of not being able to drive home (Forum Battle tomorrow in Melbourne, road trip starts at 5am SHARP!).

The show officially launches tomorrow @ BLANK SPACE Gallery – Friday 2nd through to Thursday the 8th of March, 10am – 5pm 374 Crown Street, Surry Hills so be sure to check it out if you’re in the area!

PS: MUCH better photos at Gourmantic.com and mecho.
