Two water cannon hold a pissing contest - But is it Art?

Or is it a Fountain? The thing that did surprise me most about the giant motorised pump bucket bongs was that the large plastic wheelie bins they were constructed from were embossed,  I ❤ BNE - BCC 2014/15, and they were a long way from home. For quite a while now I have had the feeling that a change over of the art-guard was happening and this work at KUDOS Gallery, again confirmed that things were moving on; I mean what do you do when everything you want to know about is just a click away; and human kinds 'natural' 'superiority' may be on the verge of being eclipsed by machine super intelligence; that may, or may not want to make art too? Make a video? Live stream the web? Are two buckets shooting perfumed jets of water at one another art, live streaming? Perhaps the writing is on the wall; Fountain R. Mutt; after all most of it is kind of ready-made..

Pip Edwards P.E Nation Launch Party at General Pants.

P.E Nation launched last night at the General Pants flagship store in Bondi Junction with an 80s style dance party and more 80s tunes than I have heard since, well the 80s! It was almost like clubbing at the Terminus back in Brissie back in the day.. but I was in a retail store instead; will wonders ever cease? Anyway I think the new P.E sportswear range from Pip Edwards and Claire Tregoning looks pretty cool and is doing the Fitness is the New Fashion thing with a bit of a throwback to the, yes yes you guessed it, the 80s! Well why not it was pretty good then.. and I love that top Pip can be seen wearing below, the stripes remind me of cycling's word championship stripes re-imagined. Congratulations Pip and Claire, and thanks for a great party :-)

P.E is that Physical Education, or Phys Ed as we called it or is it Pip Edwards's initials on a sportswear range?

Fairfax and Roberts - #EqualityRocks - Yes it Does!

And yes, Equality Rocked hard last night at Fairfax and Roberts and Street Fashion Sydney was there rocking along for the launch of the Shamballa Jewels Equality Bracelet, in a celebration of the 2016 Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras along with #EqualityRocks Project ambassadors, Steven Khalil, Joshua Heath, Oliver Patrick Barry, Ryan Channing and Christopher Haggarty. It was a fabulous night with some familiar faces and even I was somewhat star struck, grabbing Ian Thorpe for a photo op with me! I never do that!!! Maybe it was the Pommery champagne, one of my favourites. Maybe it was all the positive energy and the friendliness of it all. Whatever it was I was certainly great catching up with blogging pals and ambassadors Christopher and Joshua; and seeing instagram sensation Shiralee Coleman adding soft edges to some sparkling rocks; diamonds are a girls best friend! Fairfax and Roberts at 19 Castlereagh street is worth a visit for the beauty of the store alone, I loved those vintage display cabinets and chandeliers. And of course the jewels are divine.
