Blowback

This original stencil painting by Melbourne artist Geoff Cunningham captures the nostalgic character of Australian neighbourhoods and everyday childhood moments of the 1970s and 80's. Geoff blends hand-cut stencils and layered spray techniques to create bold light, shadow and detail. Each piece celebrates the warmth, simplicity and familiarity of retro Australian life.

"This one’s really about attitude. The bubblegum gives it the obvious hook, but the real energy is in the stance, the upward angle and that slightly untouchable expression. Set against a simplified city backdrop and a hot orange sky, it plays with nostalgia, pop culture and confidence all at once."

65 x 85cm (68 x 88 framed), Acrylic & aerosol  on canvas, this piece is framed in a sleek low profile natural oak floating frame.
