JOI MURUGAVELL | SYDNEY SOLO SHOW ‘FINDING MIKEY’
Presented by Sarah Birtles Art + Advice at
126 Abercrombie Street, Chippendale
29 April - 2 May 2022
Sydney-based artist Joi Murugavell presented her solo-exhibition Finding Mikey as a lovingly farcical world in which the banality of life is transformed into pure vibrancy.
The works on display ranged from mattress-sized mixed-media canvases to installation works consisting of chairs and skateboards wearing converse shoes. Peppered throughout each were indexical traces of life, of Murugavell’s everyday — but as viewers, you are also given the chance to find traces of your own everyday within the artworks.
