MEDIA RELEASE... SUNSHINE & GREASE...COLLAGE/DRAWINGS /PAINTING W.O.P....."I LOVE YOU LILLO"
Encouraged by Patrick O’Brien, Phil Edwards revisits his HARD RUBBISH series from the late 1990’s and extends it with his abstract drawings from the present. Continuing an experiment with intuitive drawing and painting that began with a residency at BUS in 2005, Edwards uses jumpy lines of primary colours and watercolour paint spinning out of the collage photo documentation of the ‘90’s to reinforce the synesthesia he has experienced between music and visual art.
Presented at Sunshine & Grease, which also holds a selection of his music CDs, including “Not Building” 2002 and “Bert Alphett and STUFFO Live at BUS” 2003, (with James Greig, John MacKinnon and Dave Collins), a partial loop of sorts occurs as his practice is once again located in the midst of one of the most energetic ARI’s in Melbourne.
