Commercial Art Project Nears Completion

We have been working with Silverstone Developments to create a custom feature artwork for the facade of their latest residential developments on Brunswick Street in New Farm. Our large scale commercial art piece draws inspiration from the local environment and features a Queensland Fig by local artist Gert Geyer. The artwork is almost fully up on the wall and we are thrilled to see the finished product. Now the facade will be rendered, lighting added and the piece will light up Brunswick Street. Huge thanks to our artist Gert Geyer for the fantastic concept and piece! [caption id="attachment_14222" align="aligncenter" width="960"]One more panel to go!! One more panel to go!![/caption]

RECENT COMMERCIAL ART PROJECTS

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! _DH_2275   IMG_1020   _DH_2286
  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! photo 2 copy
