David Attwood, Teenagers

LON Gallery is delighted to present Teenagers, a solo exhibition of new works by Melbourne based artist, David Attwood.


Teenagers is a new series of wall based assemblage works by David Attwood. The series uses the sleek packaging of the Apple iPhone in combination with assorted fruit stickers, which ore arranged in various formal configurations.


This combination means to recall the typically adolescent tendency to personalise certain belongings through the application of stickers, logos, badges and alike. A carefully curated selection of brands becomes a way of projecting on identity out in to the world.


Teenagers continues Attwood's interests in the ubiquity of consumer culture and its omnipresence throughout every day life.
