The Thousands

This just might be preaching to the converted, but let’s get into the minds of the unknowing for a second. Everybody loves art, but not quite everyone KNOWS that they love art. If you don’t hang in the right circles, art can feel a little divorced from everyday life, hell, even a little cliquey. Not everybody has artist friends, or friends that have some artist friends, plus not everybody looks up for street artists or gets along to gallery openings. Art is intrinsic to our lives, but it’s easy for the majority to be distracted by the more obvious, like football and that little alien called Rove, for example.

One thing’s for sure though, lots of people KNOW that they love shopping. So with that in mind, a gaggle of fantastic local artists are bringing it to the people with the Fantom Gallery Shopfront Art Project. Lining the shops of the easy Ebenezer with works from eight artists including Chloe Langford, Joel VDK, Matt Stuckey, Lisa King, Vera Ada, Fruzsi Kenez, Kelly Jonasson and Meg Lloyd.
