Recently I visited Anna Pappas Gallery (2-4 Carlton Street, Prahran, VIC, 3181). There are two wonderful artists showing; Simon MacEwan's 'The Floating World' and Kᾱryn Taylor's 'Immaterial Alchemy', both showing from 3 September 2015 to 3 October 2015.
'The Floating World' has wonderfully beautiful drawings created by a drawing machine which is also part of the exhibtion. 'Immaterial Alchemy' is a show which plays with light. The perspex artworks look like they are iluminated from within with lights, however it is actually the fluorescent coloured perspex inside creating this illusion.
Enjoy the images.
