Mirza Cizmic is the ‘Open Call’ winner from Hang Tough’s shout out last year and what a worthy winner. His collection of oil paintings are everything and then some. He states his practice is related to “past experiences” and what a glorious rabbit hole of experience he brings us through. Bonkers, dark, humourous, questioning, distorted, domestic…his compositions are inspired by old master painters but are brought into a contemporary context with layered, collage style presentation. This is topsy-turvy ‘did you spot that?’ assertive art of the finest kind. We are eagerly awaiting some sort of Salvatore of Lucan vs Mirza Cizmic art smackdown.
until May 1
