'The Tin Heads' @ Spectrum Project Space, ECU in conjunction with STALA CONTEMPORARY - Ellen Norrish
16-May-2019 - 28-May-2019
'The Tin Heads' is the latest solo exhibition from Ellen Norrish, celebrating an extensive amateur collection owned by retirees Margaret and Robert Gaston. The 10,000 tins are displayed floor to ceiling in a shed in Waggrakine, a suburb on the outskirts of Geraldton in WA's Mid West. While the exhibition cannot replicate the immersive experience of visiting The Tin Heads, the paintings seek to emulate the hobbyists' sense of kitsch, care and community in regional Australia.
* 'The Tin Heads' body of work is now part of the 'Alternative Archive' exhibition on show at Geraldton Regional Art Gallery' 31 May - 20 July 2019 *
