Exhibition-Once Upon a Midnight Dreary

On Wednesday 26 August , The Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery will unveil Once Upon a Midnight Dreary, an exhibition of new work by JME Pool.

Hailed as one of Australia’s leading exponents of the “pop-surreal” genre, JME Pool delivers work which skips around boundaries of good and evil and questions both childhood reminiscences and the adult conscience. 

Her sometimes unsettling imagery evolves from a place that is neither adult nor childlike, where creatures of the night creep menacingly from the woods to threaten the viewers own subconscious memories.

Once upon a Midnight Dreary will be open in Gallery 2 of the Bundaberg Arts Centre until October 11

The Garden of Eye Candy

Between the boundaries of fine and popular art and high and low culture, reside Id driven impulses and alter egos as toys, cartoon characters, and iconic images. From the whimsical to adorable, erotic to innocent, to the dark and gothic, they lure us into their lush worlds of fairy tales, dreams and inspiration. 

The Garden of Eye Candy introduces us to immaculate illustrations that enshroud the viewer’s perception and give flight to the imagination with each adventure and every character presented. 

The Garden of Eye Candy introduces an international roster of artists - the fore runners of these Surrealist inspired creations - in a luxurious and exquisite box set. With contributions from Cabizbaja, Candybird, Dolly Did it (JME Pool), Jaime Zollars, Kennys Work, Kukulaland, Lisa Petrucci, Amy Sol, Melanie Florian, Mijnschatje, Noferin, Brandt Peter, Danielle Lamberti, Kokomoo, Majeakann, Mark Bodnar, Rmyers Art, Saul Zanolari, Luke Chueh and more.

The Garden of Eye Candy is available in select good book shops internationally.
