Both artists were provided with detailed audio instructions (in my voice) on how to create the painting - essentially a D.I.Y. guide to 'do what I do'. Instructions guided the artists to create a circular shape containing the words IT'S YOUR TIME in specific colours and approximate sizes. Both artists were asked to paint whilst listening to the audio and were both made at separate times in order to maintain an individual and original result.<br /><br />Audio was provided next to each painting at the exhibition, giving the audience the chance to listen whilst examining - and scrutinizing - the finer details of both wall paintings.<br /></span></div><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);font-size:85%;" ><span style="font-style: italic;

Garry Trinh goes on lengthy walks in suburbia documenting the uncanny and the absurd. Ben Norris' studio practice fuses pliable materials with ready made objects in a playful process that reworks aesthetic and function. Prophetic Initiatives, established as a 'ministry' to the art world, develops interactive performances that explore 'stepping out in faith'.</span><br /></div><span class="text_exposed_show"><br /><br /></span><br />You can read the opening night speech by Anna Davis, curator, MCA by clicking <a href="http://www.artscentre.blacktown.nsw.gov.au/shadomx/apps/fms/fmsdownload.cfm?file_uuid=93B235B2-5056-991A-C1E0-F84F56F08B02&amp;siteName=blacktown">here</a> (PDF)<br /><br />A short review by Annalice Creighton can be found on DAS500.
