I don't know art but I know what I like, and that's the work of Melbourne-based artist Matt Griffin. You might have seen his work in the first installment of the Life.Death.Thereafter exhibition trilogy. The first one (Life, duh) was at that Silvershot gallery? I missed it.

They say every picture tells a story. Well at Willow bar in Northcote on Wednesday nights, every story tells a story. It's an old- fashioned approach, transcending our digital culture, and harking back to the days of Homeric odysseys, but much shorter.
