We have been engaging in some pretty great street/public art projects of late! Just this last weekend we collaborated with Brisbane Riverview Hotel to bring Californian artist Elise Lee to Brisbane. The cutting edge hotel commissioned the moving painting 'The Melody of Coexistence' specifically for the event. The animated artwork exploded like the Big Bang onto the surface of the hotel, expanding and disappearing in explosions of color and form. Like time, the artwork never repeated itself; relentlessly regenerating in new expanses & combinations of form and color. Artist Elise Lee strives to mediate between the personal experiences of joy and happiness, from the real to the unreal, remaining open to the perpetual re-assignment of either state. The circular shape of bright colors and playful movements are an invitation to party in the artist’s personal vocabulary. The repetition of singular shapes creates a visual complexity, while continuously adding layers of color and shape to ultimately create a harmony akin to music. Greg Henderson documented the event for us and produced these stunning images!

  For the James Street RESORT event, we collaborated with James Street and artist Briony Barr to create a RESORT themed artwork to light up the facade of the Scanlan Theodore store on James St. The kitsch artwork focused on the growth patterns of crystal trees. Never one to take life or art two seriously, Barr's animated installation lit up the street and provided a beautiful focal point for the Up Late shoppers!
