I have recently had the pleasure of having a solo exhibition at Arnold Street Gallery Bendigo which features my Astronaut series.

A new exhibition at the Arnold Street Gallery is reaching for the stars.

Kain White’s Odyssey exhibition is on until February 25 and will be officially launched on Thursday.

Filled with astronaut motifs, the exhibition looks at themes of exploration, experimentation and the inspiration of the stars.

Mr White has developed a combination of traditional painting skills and uses them to investigate contemporary ideas.

His work invites the viewer to consider humanity’s place in the world now and as we move forward.

 “Odyssey is an exploration of our relationship with our earthly origins and its possible effect on the way we see the world,” Mr White said.

“The infinitude of space evokes the imagination and inspires us to consider how very fragile we are here.

“If a human being departs the safety of our atmosphere they are rendered helpless and completely reliant on the artificial environment that contains them.”

The Harebrained Press Project is my attempt to fulfill a dream to undertake each stage in the process of creating a deluxe, handmade, limited edition run of my own book. This means carrying out as much of the printing, binding and publishing as possible myself, and without the resources of mainstream industry. Instead, I hope to rely on traditional methods and local support (with the exception of online marketing).

I have decided to do this for two reasons: firstly, because I would like to have the creative freedom to publish my book in the way that is best suited to its content; and, secondly, because I believe letterpress printed, hand-bound books have the potential to add to the quality of the reader’s encounter with the work.

Hey guys.

Just dropping a new post to show the most recent clip I’ve completed. It’s for Australian band, Snog  http://www.metropolis-records.com/artist/snog

 

Like the other clips I’ve created. This was made using stop motion animation techniques and minimal after effects etc. The imagery was created using a combination of hand drawn and paper cut outs.
