About Me

Sydney, NSW, Australia
I'm an arts management worker/ artist/ designer. I work at Accessible Arts in administration and bookkeeping, but also work on various freelance activities from photography to graphic design. I'm Associate Partner at the ARI, the Big Fag Press, board member of Runway Australian Experimental Art and occasionally work at Bailey and Yang Consultants. My creative work has often been driven by social issues and commentary. This blog started as a way of documenting research for my honours year at uni, which I have continued, in order to gather inspiration for future artistic practice.

Paul Kuczynski

I came across some satire that I found very interesting by an artist called Paul Kuczynski. It's helpful to be able to read Polish to navigate the website, but most of the art speaks a language of its own.

 








Although the work has received some criticism about being too literal for art, or too comercialised, I actually think as far as satire goes, some of the issues brought forward are shown in clever, witty ways that bring the point across well.

I don't think it's easy to come up with visual ways to bring across your social commentary - and some of these images do this in very imaginative ways.
