Painting is dead! Long live painting!

Well, kinda. Not really.

That was the conclusion Nigel Sense and I came to during this week’s overdose of independent, emerging and experimental arts.

Today 15 September, I had the pleasure of chatting with Nigel about the group show he’s part of, “Uncanny Valley”, currently on at Hardware Gallery, Enmore.

The brief of the show is simple: a bunch of artists were given a phrase – uncanny valley – which they had to Google (yep, it’s a verb now) on the same day. They then had to go to page three of the results, and create an artwork in any format, inspired by the result.

To hear all about Uncanny Valley, or as I call it, “that yearly Google art show”, subscribe to our podcast if you haven’t already, by popping the following feed into your iTunes: https://www.cpod.org.au/feed.php?id=308. This week’s podcast will be up shortly.

And after you’ve heard the show, join us at https://somethingelse897fm.wordpress.com and let us know what you thought of the show!
