Journey to Arcadia

I went along to a great show of Sean Rafferty's work at the 'No Frills' space at Metro Arts a few weeks back.

In Journey to Arcadia, nsw Rafferty explores the relationship of agriculture to the theatres of representation. His project develops from the glorified pastoral traditions embedded in the history of Australian Art and examines the mythologies of abundance that pervade images of the primary industries in Australia. For his exhibition with No Frills* Rafferty ambitiously composes an indoor landscape in the style of cardboard fruit boxes.

I love the cardboard landscapes and fruit box viewing hole. Such a fun work that looks at our all time favourite thing, a road trip!
