Ping Pong, Clare Peake and Tanya Schultz
In the great tradition of all-star Christmas specials, Aldas Artspace's December Show is finishing the year off with a bang, but instead of Christmas traditions, they're rolling with the tradition of V.G.A.E (Very Good Art Exhibitions).
This super-group-show-very-good-art-exhibition features none other than the wonderful David Turley, who, if you've been paying any attention, is also the "d" of d&k. Continuing in our friendly game of double artist whammy, is the extremely busy Tanya Schultz, AKA "Pip" of Pip & Pop greatness. "d" and "Pip" are dropping their "k" and "Pop" this time around to make way for the very prolific Clare Peake, who is not just a half, but the whole spoonful behind Tête-à-Tête magazine, among other things.
An acute awareness of object-ness and attention to the tiny details is something all three artists share.
The Ping Pong window installation by Clare and Tanya is refreshingly playful and imaginative, and David's loft installation Sympathy and the Sea is resourceful and provocative. Catch this while you have the chance: no doubt they'll all be romancing a bunch of new projects and collaborations before you can say ‘This is a very good art exhibition'.

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.
