Greatest Hits - 'Tacohat' Collaboration Exhibition...

West Space Gallery, Melbourne

Went along with a mate on the weekend to have a look at a group show at Westspace.
There were a few artists being exhibited but i was there to see a collaboration of visual artists who call themselves 'Greatest Hits'. They create video and installation pieces which are pretty wild.


I was lucky enough to be introduced to one member of GH, Simon. He was a cool dude who told me a bit out about how they produce their work and why.

'There is no escape from the hours and the days. Neither from tomorrow nor from yesterday because yesterday has deformed us, or been deformed by us... Yesterday is not a milestone that has been passed, but a daystone on the beaten track of the years, and irremediably part of us, within us heavy and dangerous. We are not merely more weary because of yesterday, we are other, no longer what we were before the calamity of yesterday.'

Some video pieces they have uploaded online...
