Painted MEN is a series i have been working on for nearly 15 years. It is my passion project.
I love working with abstraction AND I love the sense of joy that I AND the model get with the free flow of paint on skin.

This is a series of work curated for a group exhibition called: men/still/shooting by Garrie Maguire at his XYZ Gallery in Docklands Melbourne for the Midsumma Festival.

“This exhibition brings together six practitioners whose involvement in the gay community stretch to last century and the days of analogue. They continue to make work and investigate cis male to male desire. This essay is about raising the issue of representation that is hidden from view.”
