“Devising a visual vocabulary based on diverse influences including graphic design, mechanical form, and deep-sea life, Oeltjen presents his intriguing new explorations in assemblage and printmaking. Conceptually this show explores visual language as sourced from the written form, modularity, and sympathy between the natural world and manufactured goods.”

I just finished installing my Biolume solo show at the new No Vacancy Project Space at Federation Square in Melbourne. We aren’t having an opening (maybe a closing though) coz I’m too busy getting ready for the upcoming Wooden Foundations group show at No Vacancy QV on July 1 (more info here). I’m pretty happy with this show so if you’re in Melbourne come check it out.

Wilkintie Series 1

admin — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 07:20:50 +0000

I can’t believe it’s been nearly a whole year since we started the Wilkintie project! We just released print No. 10, and No.11 is just around the corner. It’s been an incredible experience, and we’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with some great people. Keep an eye out for the next couple of prints, some amazing stuff coming up!

My Alma Mater

Ten years on from graduating from the University of Tasmania’s School of Art I’ll be presenting to the current students and anyone interested in hearing (and seeing) what I’ve been doing since 1998. Haven’t prepared the presentation yet so I can’t tell you what to expect, but I’ll be showing images of my street works, illustration, and some design. There’ll be an open forum after the presentation for questions. Any shy attendees reading this are welcome to email me their questions to be answered on the day.

CarriageWorks show

admin — Sat, 31 Jan 2009 16:48:50 +0000

I’ll be showing at CarriageWorks in Sydney as part of the May’s retrospective in March.

From the CarriageWorks website:

The May’s Lane Street Art Project emerges from their renowned St Peters laneway to take up residence in CarriageWorks’ vast foyer for a huge retrospective exhibition. Curated by May’s director Tugi Balog, the exhibition will include a diverse selection of enormous artworks created at May’s Lane between 2005 – 2008 by legendary graff artists of Sydney as well as celebrated international street artists. Vibrant and immense, the retrospective will span a range of styles; New York graffiti, spray paint, paste ups, stencils and sculpture are featured in old and new panels.

The May’s Lane Art Project is an outdoor gallery space located in St Peters in Sydney’s inner west. Each month, several artists are invited to use the entire space as their canvas. The artwork is archived by Tugi and his team, creating a unique historical treasure trove of original Sydney street art.

This will be a big event, and a big deal for a project like May’s. You might recognise the poster boy?
