Well-known for their work in the music industry (Cloud Control, Richard In Your Mind, Washington, Josh Pyke, Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti, Florence And The Machine, Animal Collective), Katherine Brickman and Kate Mitchell have very delightfully created a show based around an album that they would have made if they were a band – or at least the artwork from it.
Greedy Hen‘s collage-style, delicate, girly, nature-themed art features a quiet, earthy pallette and childlike motifs, and will be recognisable to most from various album covers and posters seen through Australia in the last few years.
Despite being about their fake album, there will be no music at the exhibition – the one thing the viewer has to fill in, in his or her mind. Cute! Along similar lines to Joaquin Phoenix, Greedy Hen ask how they could re-invent themselves in another discipline. They, however, also bring their extensive experience in music-based illustration to the table, too.
