Sydney-based Paper Engineer and friend, Benja Harney celebrated his first solo show 'The Paper Attic', tonight to a packed crowd at Object Gallery in Surry Hills. These intricately crafted works resemble objects that one might find within an attic room. In this curious space, Benja recreates a room where discarded objects such as old records, a rocking horse, ice-skates and books sit forgotten and discarded. The room is complete with architectural features inclusind a sash window and found objects.
During Sydney Design 2011, Object will be staying awake on Thursday nights. Join Benja in the gallery between 5-8pm on the 11 August.
See the exhibition, which was curated by Tara D'cruz-Noble, until 25 September 2011.
