Russia, the unconquerable land. While I yearn to don an ushanka and retreat to a dacha, I'm not going anywhere for now. So if Rasputin can't come to the mountain, the mountain must come to Rasputin! Confused? Us too! Let's regroup.
Lomography cameras hail from St. Petersburg and can do cool things with light leaks, saturated colours and blurry focus. Pigeonhole, home to Perth's widest range of these Russian beauties, are hosting their annual Lomovember exhibition this weekend in conjunction with the charity phenomenon Movember happening nationwide this month. (Lomography + Movember = Lomovember!).
Which means the cream of the lomo crop from local photographers, and plenty of clean shaven men admiring the exhibition. Lomo workshops all weekend by lomo master Yolanda Stapleton. Who may or may not be wearing an ushanka.
Gallery Type: Artist-run

About
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.
