Tallawong and Norwest: Living and Dreaming in this City by Ghostpatrol
Tasmanian born, Melbourne-based artist Ghostpatrol’s practice is grounded in a passion for drawing and sketching. He has always been split between street-based works, including temporary sculptures and installations, and contemporary studio-based practice that culminates in regular exhibitions in prominent private and public institutions across Australia and internationally.
The whimsical and innocent nature of his work seemingly opposes his conceptual concerns with metaphysics, quantum physics, cosmology and futurism.
