fill in the blanks







Think about space, escaping, hiding spaces, building a house on a moving object. thriving in departure zones like bus stations and airports. standing still in a dust storm or at the top of Martin Place. waiting watching. think about closing your eyes and imagine running so fast. you breathe fast, start gasping for air and you haven't moved a muscle. lying at the bottom of the pool and looking up through the water. diving. listening to your breath. closing your eyes.







then think about construction/fabrication/make up masks/costumes/houses.







games/ ladders/interiors/superfluous decoration and the definition of O.T.T . and imagine how much you can hide under that distraction, colourful beautiful creative mess.

Thomas C Chung

....and his art:

A friend from art school, and a wonderful playful artist with a dark side. Loving the shadows that are cast within, loving the fresh, fun, playful sculptures he crochets. Neally everything is personified, animated, imagined. Like a scene from childhood. The knitted paint tin toys say it all, and the world goes on backwards, forwards, inwards and outside, like a game, for adults.

Thomas is based in sweden and exhibits regularly. If you are lucky enough you might catch him next year back in oz.....
