Tanya Schultz solo exhibition "A Handful of Sunshine"

12 May 2010 - 24 June 2010

Following an Artsource residency in Tokyo in December-January 2010, the contemporary Australian artist Tanya Schultz will hold her solo exhibition of paintings and drawings in May-June 2010. 

Having gleaned a variety of hyper-colourful packaging of consumables in the ‘cute’ aesthetic, in detailed kaleidoscopic paintings Schultz suggests the moment of joy in excessive and simultaneous consumption of the material and the ideal.

Based on video games, folk tales, creation stories, children’s literature, and ancient cosmologies, in Pip & Pop, a collaborative duo with Nicole Andrijevic, Schultz uses everyday materials to transfigure spaces into immersive psychedelic wonderlands. In A Handful of Sunshine, Schultz examines the theme of abundance in the relationship between adult and child in contemporary mass consumer culture.
