Event Title: From River to Sea.
Participating Artists: Amok Island.
Venue: Suburban Table, 622 Stirling Highway Mosman Park 6011.
Description: Amok Island (born Amsterdam, 1983) is a self-taught
self-employed artist/designer living in Perth, Western Australia.
On land you can find his super sized marine creatures painted on public
walls. If you search below sea level, you could come across one of his large
concrete letter sculptures, slowly being covered by sea life.
From his studio in Inglewood, Amok Island paints large colourful canvases of
sea creatures and coastal aerial views. His hand made screenprints are from
start till finish produced at his studio, exposing the screens using the
light of the sun.
After growing up and more than a decade of painting walls in the heart of
Amsterdam, his love for everything tropical has led him travelling through
Asia, ending up in Western Australia in 2009. Amok Island is passionate
about underwater photography, which often provides the reference to his
work.
