Q: How many nerdy girls does it take to change a light-bulb?
A: Don't know, don't care.

Just kidding. A few people care. More importantly, when nerdy girls grow up and blossom into cluey, weirdly intimidating alterna-hotties with amazing taste in music, I care. When you think about it, who doesn't love a girl who is equally comfortable talking about Studio Ghibli movies as she is scoring pingers at four in the morning?

Gorker Gallery presents Bookworms Never Go to Bed Alone, a new body of work by NZ artist Kelly Thompson. Comprising paintings, illustrations, prints and more, this (let's be honest) sexy exhibition proves the old adage that inside every clever nerdy girl, there's a girl too clever to remain nerdy. Be there and be square.
