Masao Kinoshita's "Metanatomy."
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Currently on view at Beinart Gallery in Melbourne, Australia is artist Masao Kinoshita's solo exhibition, "Metanatomy."
Masao Kinoshita, a Japanese artist, approaches his work by dividing the world into two concepts: "content" and "space." Content refers to everything that humans have created, such as words, culture, and time, while space includes everything in the universe. Although space cannot be perceived by humans, content helps us to create mental files for our understanding of space.
Kinoshita's sculptures explore themes such as animals, human figures, and costumes, which are all content made from his accumulated files. In his collection, there is a sculpture of an animal with a half-skeleton that was created over ten years ago. Kinoshita hopes that people who see his work will feel the space that it occupies.

Expressive Eyes Painted by Robyn Rich Peek Out from Vintage Tins
What does it mean to see? To be seen? Artist Robyn Rich (previously) examines these questions in her practice as she paints realistic eyes that peer out from vintage tins and small vessels. The tiny works harness physical particularities to relay the emotions and idiosyncrasies of the subject, whether through thick brows, wrinkles, or mascaraed lashes that frame the delicate organs. Intimate and unsettling when displayed in large collections, the miniature pieces explore various aspects of the gaze and perspective and ask who is watching whom.

'offering' oil painting on cradled birch panel, 9x12 inches. This piece is my contribution to the group show 'Folk Horror' opening tonight at Beinart gallery !! **Show is live on their site as well, you can see it by following the Iink in my Iinktree**
I wanted to make something that captured the less figurative mood of the genre, forest meats unnamed and hopefully eerie?
Show will be on display from May 28th-June 18th. Go have a peek is you're in the Melbourne area <3

I almost didn't go to the opening night of the small works exhibition at Beinart Gallery, I'd just woken from an afternoon nap around the time it was kicking off and I'm weakest after a day-nap. I'll wake softer as a person, pick at food with my fingers and whisper rather than speak, wiping my frizzy hair from my cheek with the flat back of my hand like a child. But I cheated, looked up some artists exhibiting and found a piece by sculptor / painter John Chen, called 'Little Fatty' and was sold, probably 'cause he looked how I feel after a nap. Then I saw a painting by Dan Seagrave and was doubly committed. It was funny, my housemate picked out his paintings too, looked up the price and it was later I saw how much of his work has been used for death metal album covers. Part of me wondered if I could lane switch hard like that. I woke up with it on my mind. His paintings remind me of the freedom I feel creating with clay. I'll sit with no form or goal in mind and allow my hands to create strange mutated beasts. If I could just draw in that disposition... The attendees were so beautiful I tried not to look at them, just drank a cherry seltzer and got too close to all the pieces. Some had me using my art words again: "nah, get fuuuuucked" - I really recommend the exhibition, it's running until October the 8th.

Abigail Goldman's "Small Improvements."
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Currently on view at Beinart Gallery in Melbourne, Australia is artist Abigail Goldman's solo exhibition, "Small Improvements."
"Small Improvements" is the latest collection of sculptures by Abigail Goldman. They are miniature, rendered in 1:87 scale: the figures in each work are just under 2 centimeters tall.
Goldman calls these miniature scenes “dieoramas.” While they initially appear charming, the viewer looking closely soon realizes that the diminutive figures within each dieorama are holding weapons, lying in pools of blood or standing in a kitchen, serving body parts for breakfast. What first appears to be a generic suburban family setting unfolds into a macabre tableau where miniature mayhem reigns.
The dieoramas in Small Improvements are part of Goldman’s ongoing exploration of violence and our deepest selves, which are more depraved than we admit. The pull of violence is everywhere—in breathless TV news coverage of crime, in the movies and shows we consume, and in our primal selves, which are revealed in fleeting moments of daily rage: at the car that cuts us off on the highway, the boss that passes us over for promotion. Increasingly, we are angry and divided. Increasingly, we are unmoved by violence, which has become commonplace and predictable.
Dieoramas are an effort to capture and contain rage, to disarm with the contrast of awful and adorable, and to invite the viewer to assess their own attraction to misery and mayhem. In this way, dieoramas become both cathartic totems and miniature monuments to the id. Goldman finds that for every one person repelled by her dieoramas, there are three who delight in them. The vast majority of us, she believes, are fundamentally dark, and driven ever darker by our modern condition.

"Thirst" (2016) by Latvian artist, Jana Brike (born 1980).
Oil painting
"Sometimes I have thought I paint children because I cannot be a child myself. I was raised up in a very restricted environment. To feel guilty and ashamed for just about everything was considered normal. I kept my wildness and craving to live with openhearted immediacy well hidden. I am luring that carefree wild child out to live a full life through my art. I as a person am still in struggle of doing it in my life."
Jana Brike’s whimsical, magical paintings allow us a glimpse into an intimate world of what she describes as a ‘poetic visual autobiography’.
Over the span of her career, she has explored different interests and subjects as a reflection of her own personal journey. Common to all of her works is the wondrous and regenerative presence of nature, especially the archetype of water, as well as butterflies, birds and flowers. Her detailed dreamscapes show human figures, often adolescent females, in playful and unselfconscious discovery of the world around them. Through this intuitive and personal symbolism, Brike’s works engage with themes of exploration, growth, innocence, curiosity, transcendence and love.
Born in Soviet-occupied Latvia in 1980, from the age of five Brike began a strict technical education in painting and drawing, intended to train children for careers as social realist painters for the Soviet propaganda apparatus. In this rigid and restrictive environment, Brike sought reprieve and comfort in nature outings with her grandmother and with whatever other glimpses of beauty and poetry she could find. This idea of bitter-sweetness is important attribute of Brike’s work. She talks about the ‘dance of transcendence’ and the process of transformation of the dark and heavy parts of our lives into lightness and joy. There is often a juxtaposition of harshness with hope in her paintings, with figures showing bloody scratches, incisions or redness on their skin and surrounded by butterflies or flowers. Here, the viewer doesn’t feel pity for the subject of the painting, and the emphasis is more on the resiliency of spirit that these figures show and the gentle and persuasive power of nature in always triumphing over adversity.
Vulnerability and intimacy is also an important characteristic of Brike’s work. Nakedness and nature often go together in her paintings, and Brike has described the human body as ‘vulnerability in its nakedness’. Although she frequently portrays naked adolescent girls, sometimes depicted in scenes of erotic exploration, the effect is never base or lewd. Instead there is an innocence and naturalness about it, where the viewer isn’t a voyeur or spectator, but transposed into the subject itself. It speaks to a playful coming-of-age, the establishment of self-identity or discovery of self, or what Brike refers to as ‘subjective, inherent feminine sexuality’. Even though we as the audience are privy to such personal acts, there’s something very ordinary and relatable about them as represented by the chipped nail polish on the girls’ hands. In the development of these works, Brike uses adult wise women to pose for the faces of the girls and boys, then alters their proportions to create a sage but childlike demeanour to her characters. Thus, these acts of self-discovery are metaphors for the continual exploration and growth we all do throughout our lives no matter what our biological age or gender.

"One day, the bird died. The woman felt terribly sad and spent all her time thinking about him. But she did not remember the cage, she thought only of the day when she had seen him for the first time, flying contentedly amongst the clouds. If she had looked more deeply into herself, she would have realized that what had thrilled her about the bird was his freedom, the energy of his wings in motion, not his physical body. Without the bird, her life too lost all meaning, and Death came knocking at her door. “Why have you come?” she asked Death. “So that you can fly once more with him across the sky,” Death replied. “If you had allowed him to come and go, you would have loved and admired him ever more; alas, you now need me in order to find him again.” An excerpt from Eleven Minutes by @paulocoelho that inspired 'Philomela', my new work for 'Small Works 2022' with @beinartgallery. This 8 by 10 inches oil on wood panel painting is now available for collecting via Beinart Gallery.
