Andie McGovern is hosting a viewing of her 33-piece Simpsons-inspired sculpture series ‘But My Mum Says I’m Cool’ at Jet Black Cat Music, 72A Vulture street, West End.
Andie McGovern is a contemporary, multi-disciplinary artist whose main art forms consist of sculpture, illustration and installation. Amongst other things, being pigeonholed as a millennial has proven to be useful inspiration with most of her artwork relating to subject matters explored within pop culture.
Although Andie has been making art since she was a child, it is only in the last 12 months that she has had a presence in the Brisbane arts scene. Andie explains, “I am a child of the nineties and like many kids of that era I loved watching TV before and after school”.
That exposure during childhood has and continues to influence many of her works. This influence can be seen most notably in her latest work ‘But my mum says I’m cool’, a 33 piece sculpture series involving The Simpsons subject matter, exploring each character’s vices, addiction and the perception that surrounds it.
This two and a half year project kick starts its first show in its hometown of Brisbane, Australia before being taken abroad in November 2018. This will see Andie exhibiting across three shows in New York, including global arts programs; Raw Artists and Conception Arts as well as her third solo exhibit ‘But My Mum Says I’m Cool’.
