It’s back! After an extended hiatus blank_space’s walls are once again ready to bring you ‘the art’. The group of artists who had the lucky opportunity of re-opening the space as a gallery were Bennett, Kalen and Tez with their show “Spreading The Disease“.

Bat Series 1-4 - Kalen
For a 3 man group show this was a hugely diverse exhibition. Kalen’s edgy mixed media portraits were brilliant. And their simple gestural style was a great contrast to the perfect lines of Bennett’s canvases on the opposite wall.
Trash Collective - Bennett x Phew Collaboration
Bennett’s canvases were beautifully executed. A series of collaborations with other Sydney based Graff artists including dboe, Roter and Phew. Sharp, clean lines with layered stencils made it obvious that these artists have mastered their technique.
Installation or functional bin? You decide.

Tez is an artist who like to turn his hand to painting, mixed media, print, sculpture… pretty much anything. His collection of works was a great glimpse at his diversity.
Hijacked - Tez (print), Blow Up Your Ego! - Tez (sculpture)
Love it.
Apologies for not having names for all the works. Final touches to the listing was being negotiated. Having to name and price artwork sucks, so hard. Honestly, you have our sympathy.
Nice show. And nice to see blank_space back on the calendar.
