About Helter Skelter - Exhibition

Listed Under Exhibitions Events / Arts and Crafts Events

Using reclaimed materials from the iconic Montgomery Street Helter Skelter, he has created a series of sculptural artworks that highlight the structure's transformation since its installation in the 1970s.

Rusted surfaces, peeling paint, and faded colours are as integral to these collage-like pieces as they once were to the local community. Within these textures and imperfections lie the memories and stories of a once-beloved landmark.

Opening Night:
May 30th - 18:00 — 21:00
May 31st & June 1st - 12:00 — 18:00
