FEAR OF ROMANCE by Joseph Earp – Opening Tuesday 29th August 6pm

Fear of Romance – Joseph Earp

“Fear of Romance is an exhibition of paintings by Joseph Earp. At Tap Gallery, upstairs at 259 Riley St. Surry Hills, Sydney. Open every day 12-6 from Tues August 29 to Sat 3 September.

Joseph Earp is an acclaimed author, painter and poet, whose written work has been published in The Guardian, The Sydney Morning Herald and more. Fear of Romance is an exhibition of the paintings on which he has forged his name — works that combine dark humour, poetry, and heart. Drawing on influences as varied as David Hockney, Paula Rego and the poet Frank O’Hara, Earp’s work blends text and image into sometimes horrifying, often humane visual experiences.”

Vasanth Rao solo show June 19 -25, 2023. Opening drinks Tuesday 20 June 6-8pm. Artist’s talk Saturday 24 at 3pm.

Vasanth Rao Solo Show

Artist Statement

As an artist I believe that Art is not just a drawing or visual representation for me but rather beyond that. It has been a key tool and process of discovering myself. It is my visual diary wherein I note and express my explorations. Though my journey began 24 years ago with expressing objects and experiences of my external world, it soon turned into a Self-discovery process. For me, Art is that eminent medium that helps me discover my core soul aspects like sex and spirituality. This accelerated and graduated my curiosity in key areas of Self, and thus, Sex and Spirituality became my subject of exploration which I try to represent visually through my art.
