Big thanks to everyone who came down last Monday night for Peta Roebuck's solo exhibition "What we didn't know we'd miss during a global pandemic". Peta's work is now gracing the walls at Bivs. All originals have been sold. Limited edition prints are available.
Inspired by vintage Japanese graphic design and surrealism, Peta creates bold and colourful works that juxtapose precise digital design with the happy mistakes that come with traditional media. Her mixed-media practice incorporates digital design, gouache and pencil.
In this collection of works, Peta has reflected on the things we didn’t know we would miss during a global pandemic. A celebration of our ability to physically connect again in Perth, Peta aims to create a sense of playful optimism and gratitude in her works.
Peta is a freelance designer, illustrator and public artist who regularly creates music posters for local Perth bands as well as murals and other commissioned works. Peta has painted murals in Mt Hawthorn, East Victoria Park and Mirrabooka and has been involved in various group shows in Perth. Find more of her works on Peta’s Instagram: @onomatopeta_.
25% of all sales will be donated to Sisters Inside, a not for profit who both strategically advocate for the collective interests of aboriginal women in the criminal justice system as well as provide services to address their more immediate needs.
Cheers to Atomic Beer Project for the brews. Love to the Bivs team for the food, booze and your time guys. Photos by our very own talented Alice. She's a weapon with the lens!
