Steve Smith
The weight of time - apocalyptic dreaming

“The essence of Steve Smith’s images and the dream-like entities in his paintings and drawings are not taken from fiction but are a reality that he observes on his daily travels around his beloved Bondi and beyond into the suburbs of Sydney. The imaginary pre-apocalyptic propositions in his art works have evolved from his fascination with comics but also from his observations of street life from the viewpoint and anonymity of a sign writer who disappears into the world within the looking glass.” Nick Vickers
