Vein Store held its first birthday party on Wednesday. What a night! Thank you to everyone who attended and participated. See yourself on the video below!
While I was never quick enough to get any food, I hear it was delicious. Thanks to Szuting and Marilyn for the superb cooking. Also thank you Gian for your kitchen.
Thank you to our sponsor, Edenvale for the non-alcoholic beverages and Kalibar for serving them so creatively. Rather than booze and a cheap parade, we wanted this event to be entertaining, interactive and educational to reflect the calibre of clientele that we are so fortunate to have.
Thank you Tyrone Noonan for performing live for our guests. Tyrone's music is on the video...if you want a CD let me know. Aussie artists need support!
Thank you Gordon Kelly from Hallelujah Shoe Works for answering everyone's questions about shoe making, shoe care and repair and exotic leathers.
Thank you Chris Stewart for amazing styling.
Thank you so much to our volunteers: John, Marilyn, Maevys, Eric, Marion and everyone else that lent a hand.
Self-replicating Canibalism Eats Vein Store Soon
The progressive art banner in the Vein Store in Brisbane Australia is currently being worked on by talented creator Chris Worfold. It's very exciting to have an artist of Chris' calibre working on the next installment. He has referenced Self-replicating Canibalism as a description for the work. I'll chat to Chris about this more later.
The idea behind the banner is have progressive creative change form an organic art work that lives in the store. So the slate is never wiped clean. Instead each new installment overlaps the last. You can still see the pink/purple work in the background done by Carmen and Andrew from the late FUGU Design Studio.
Chris Worfold is an Australian, Brisbane based artist, artworker and educator with an extensive local exhibition history. He is a graduate from the Queensland College of Art and the Queensland University of Technology in Visual Arts and Education. He has been co-director of a commercial gallery, curated numerous exhibitions, written for catalogues and publications. He has completed several public art commissions, served on a number of arts committees and taught Visual Arts for over 10 years. He currently teaches part-time at the Southbank Institute of Technology and has an escalating arts practice which is extending internationally and into publications. He has stacked all his accomplishments beside him.
