Love me two times - new works on paper by Kirra Jamison at Linden Centre for Contemporary Arts

Love me two times - new works on paper by Kirra Jamison at Linden Centre for Contemporary Arts

Ok so I have to admit there are a few people who get a lot of repeat attention from The Design Files. Kirra Jamison is one of them. What can I do!? I can't HELP IT if people are this outrageously talented and prolific can I!?

After recently posting the stunning Northcote studio / home Kirra shares with her partner Dane Lovett... I just HAD to follow up with these exquisite works from her current show at Linden Centre for Contemporary Arts in St. Kilda. Inspired by vintage fabrics, and rendered in vivid gouache, ink and coloured texta(!), I reckon these might just be my fave Kirra Jamison works EVER. Big call.

The show, entitled 'Love me two times' just opened on Saturday and already many of the stunning works on paper are SOLD! If you see something you like, better get on the phone!

Lovely work Kirra!
