HYPNAGOGIC TABLEAU BY LEE MCCONNELL ART SHOW OPENING – 6PM–8PM FRIDAY 6 JULY EXHIBITION 12 JULY TILL 6 AUGUST 2019 AT LONE GOAT GALLERY
Playwright Hannie Rayson
The exhibition takes a look through a lucid window of space between consciousness and unconsciousness, past and present, technology and nature, allowing you to experience all the sensory freedom that comes with that space. The show will feature plays on light, painting, installations, and video work. Lee McConnell is an ARIA-nominated visual artist, director, and animator, nationally known for his work with Dune Rats, Jack River, and Mambo. Hailing from the small seaside town of Forster and now living in Byron Bay, Lee takes inspiration from the strangeness of everyday reality, making it brighter, stranger, and like you’ve never seen it before. In the years since leaving Mambo Lee has gone on to become one of the most recognised rock’n’roll artists in Australia and he was the obvious choice to create the visual landscape for the 2019 Splendour in the Grass music and arts festival. His goal is ‘to share the worlds from my dreams and venture into dimensions that might exist somewhere else in the universe’. Lee’s alternative realities are a digital decoupage created using media both traditional and experimental.
