Matt Palmer
Sydney artist, Matt Palmer, has an exhibition of new works showing at the China Heights Gallery between November 9-16. For the show, entitled Slipping In Time, Palmer has ‘created a series of suggestive characters and landscapes that create an imaginary past. Their ghost-like appearance and painterly image intrigues and invites us to reminisce about the places and people we may have met in fairytales or our dreams’. The theme is centred on his short film of the same name. ‘The exhibition combines moving and still images to create a series of visual metaphors that set out to be both haunting and evocative’.

Blippy: tracking real time online spending

Junk art often evokes nostalgia — a vintage refrigerator door used in a sculpture can suggest loss, passage of time, and distant memories.

Hello, my name is Zolton and I’m a text addict. That’s right, an instinctive, compulsive plier of the trade, straight from the Michael Douglas school of confessional proclamation. Yup, I don’t care if it’s quick or protracted; if it’s a group message or one just for me. I’ll take that text any damn way you can give it. And if that’s a crime in these repressed, conservative times, then so be it. Just don’t strip me of my pride. Or my mobile phone. [illustration by Nathan Jurevicius]
