Exhibition – Mark “Kill Pixie” Whalen – White Out -VIC

Mark Whalen, otherwise (or formally?) known as Kill Pixie, is no stranger to Australias urban art scene, having been a mainstay for many a year. As a proclaimed “former” street artist, he has branched out into all different manner of styles as he further explores the geometric themes, that, over time, his work has evolved around.

“In recent years, Mark Whalen has used an axonometric grid as a foundation on which to engineer paintings that are, at once, psychedelic visions of our past lives and a revelatory demonstration of what is yet to come. His characters are confined within micro worlds laden with sex, religion, race, and violence. They play out scenes that titillate and torture with reckless abandon. At times there is no distinction between floor, ceiling and wall – each being congruent with activity and without gravitational pull. These worlds are, quite literally, on the brink of being turned upside down.”

This looks like a fun show, from a eminently influential and productive artist who represents all that is good about the art coming out of these shores.
