Exhaust Review
SAT 14 DEC - SAT 18 JAN 2025
Stepdown is delighted to present an exhibition by local artist Michael Hawksworth, our final for 2025.
Exhaust Review presents a series of gouache and charcoal drawings which read something like a recovered document of a derailed architectural proposal, or maybe abstract SF flotsam.
A zine featuring writing by Andre Prichard and Mark Anderson will be available, along with lashings of silly season libations.
All welcome.
*This exhibition will be accompanied by a live music performance featuring Michael Hawksworth and Mark Anderson in January. Stay tuned for more details coming soon.
Opening Celebration: 4pm-, Saturday 14 December
