The "portrait of shame " was winner of the major prize for Gippsland.
It was a parody of the people around me. Shameful people are obedient. I did not hold back on confronting images when I exhibited on Phillip Island for 3 years . I really have never held back ever. I had one or two curators who were willing to put my paintings forward which helped. I knew in my heart they would come out of the woodwork because we are all not of the same ilk and art touches so deeply. I guess I haven't lost faith in humanity just yet. "

Ben Antoniadis records his music on a second hand apple 8. He often writes a song a day.
We think his poetry and music have great depth and heart, and the ability to help in the healing.
We are in talks with Ben on him becoming one of our first "signed" KULTURE Artists.
What do we mean by KULTURE?
Cafe Locked Out is now on the search for Free Artists.
We want Art inspired by the turbulent Covid Years.
We want to see if your art can help us make sense of our new world, help us find who we are now as Australian’s and where we are going.
We believe that the tsunami of Covid washed away our country’s identity, and now we are searching through the rubble for who we are, for we also believe, that upon our new identity, a deeper, more resilient and nourishing Kulture will blossom.
So spread the word. CLO is after new Songs, poems, art, including AI art and Memes, short films, novels etc, etc.
If you can’t meet us on the road please send your art to
kulture.cafelockedout@gmail.com
