A Successful Exhibition at a Haunted Club


So. I'm a little behind, aren't I?

I've still got over a week of blog material, but I have 3 days left here...

Between studying and the exhibition, and goodbye parties, I've neglected you all, eh? I'll update this while in the US until I have no more material!

ANYWAY, the exhibition at World Bar! World Bar was located in King's Cross in Sydney, which is basically their club/red light district.


This'll only make sense if you've been reading Australian news~



Anyway, World Bar was a classy place. Pretty trendy as far as clubs go. One of the organizers said that it was haunted. The place used to be a brothel, but the room upstairs from the gallery used to host the more... dangerous requests. Apparently alot of guys died in the process, and ghosts are supposedly rampant. HAUNTED CLUB?? The room had a fake bookcase put in front of it, and its used for private functions. It was closed off the whole night, unfortunately.



I pretty much had 4 days to make 16 pieces, so some things were recycled from old shit. However, I accidentally came upon a new, previously unawakened aspect of my art soul that will definitely come in handy with the 09/10 Gargoyle year! I'm kind of sad I sold some of the pieces, I secretly wanted to keep some of them :(



The turnout was small, since I was competing with a HUGE rugby game and a Ghostface Killah concert. However, alot of my Aussie buddies turned up, and thats all I need honestly! It was a blast!

Well, to all my Australian readers, most of you might already be gone from Basser or whereever, but I want to let you know that these four months wouldn't have been nearly as great without you guys. STAY CLASSIC.

  1. The most important question for any artist is, of course, DID YOU MAKE ANY MONEY?
