sad to say it’s the last two days in #naarm Melbourne. Have to work out what to do with all the prints. These are details from two prints on found maps (which are in turn stereographs from the @libraries_vic collection, printed in photogravure). I still get a big kick out of the Henry Lawson lookalike getting skewered by modern roads.

please come and water my sculpture! Tomorrow is your last Saturday to see the subduction exhibition. Tom will be there minding the gallery 11-4pm and you can water Library’s End (!995-2025) in its last week.
Lots of people helped with this project—have to say @hhesterman is one of the most dynamic, chlorophyllic and amazing friends I have

A work for Frankstonites in #naarm Melbourne. It’s the most colourful work of mine in the show with its geomorphic delineation of sediments and volcanics. An interesting waypoint given that I started the project looking at geological maps from the late 1850s and early 1860.
If you work during the week this Saturday 11-4pm is the only time to see the show when @thomascivilian is minding it.

I always find it hard not to think of a group of artworks in a space as being an installation. These were the finishing touch on the second wall of works in the gallery — groundworks almost on the ground

Sneak peak of our new exhibition!!!!
Tonight we launch and celebrate the Baldessin Studio State Library Victoria Fellows Exhibition, Subduction
Featuring Perdita Philips & Tom Sevil (aka Civil)
Come by from 5pm tonight to congratulate these two talented artists.
Perdita Philips & Tom Sevil (aka Civil) draw on the geographical idea of subduction as method and metaphor: what is pushed below is never gone; it stains, compress, mutates, and re-emerges in altered form.
The exhibition is on until March 27 and the PCA gallery will also be open on Saturday March 14 and March 21 (11-4pm)
Event: Artist talk with Tom Sevil (aka Civil) on Saturday March 14, 3pm
