High school reunions are usually more about trying to one up the people who pissed you off in high school, than they are an opportunity to really reminisce.That's unless your graduating class is a class of painters, in which case each reunion doubles as an excuse to throw a group exhibition, which is exactly what ECU's 1996 painting graduates - Campbell Whyte, Liz Maruffo and co - are doing at freerange.
Eating crayons and sticking your fingers together with PVA might have been OK in primary school, but what happens when you're all grown up and still experimenting? Sydney-based artist Huseyin Sami likes to throw paint everywhere, wait for it to dry, and then roll it up into big statues.
A quick looksee into the gallery reveals a DIY showcase of house paint and pegboards.

SixThousand is a subcultural guide to Perth, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Perth writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence SixThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
