Where in the world is Mr Reka?

Sorry for the lack of content the last month. I just got back from my crazy trip to the states for the Young&Free Exhibition in San Fran and my 2 week stint in New York. I’m in the process of uploading and sifting through about 2000 photos of my trip. So bare with me. In the mean time I have collected a bunch of photos that Michael Cuff from the Warholian Blog took while in San Francisco. He tooks some great shots of the set-up of the show, A few Walls the we all painted & the opening night of the exhibition. Check them out here:

Behing the Scenes

Opening Night 

Keep your eyes peeled for my photos and other info on the hectic time i spent there. En joy…

NGV

BroadSheet Melbourne has done a feature on the residency that myself and the rest of the Everfresh Studio are involved in at the NGV. It sheds some light on this exciting opportunity for us. Check it out here.

I’d like to mention that it is now open to the public. If you are in sunny Melbourne come down and say g’day. I will be working there most days. I’ll drop more info on this shortly but we will be having an official closing exhibition of all the work that we have created in the space.

Al Stark - Inside the Universe

Al Stark would have to be one of my favourite Melbourne artists at the moment. I recently got a lovely tattoo off him. I’m stoked. Mr Stark and Adi Nachman recently created this short film as an art piece in its self.  Amazing stuff.

I think the movie speaks for itself. Check his blog for more info. Watch and learn…
