Duplicated Utility
A Queensland Arts Council Ontour byrequest exhibition
16 April - 24 May 2007
Redland Art Gallery, Capalaba
Duplicated Utility takes its title from an exploration of the creative links between artwork and skateboarding and is the collaboration between two artists who express themselves in different media; painting and photography. Phillip Christensen’s paintings on skateboards combine the real and the surreal to develop a fresh perception on life, while Ben Challenor uses the lens of his camera to capture the skateboarding world from a new angle.
