Gek's Third Solo Exhibition - Official Opening

The Exhibition's official opening was on the 19th, a Sunday coinciding with the street outside the venue being closed for weekly 'fun of the fair'.

Gek kicked off  the event with much deserved thank you gift of one of Gek's water colour landscape paintings to the organiser, Choon Ean.

A tour of the installation led by the artist followed, starting with the paintings of some of Gek's many friends.

The Emotions section  perhaps has the most abstract of the paintings in the show.

Visitors on the day include friends Yong Tai, Yoong Koy and Choo.

Gek's Third Solo Exhibition - Ready to Open

The sails are set,

the banner is unfurled, for today we open the show.  I think we are so fortunate to have such a handy coffee shop so  near by and they serve my favourite nasi lemak on the whole of Penang island.  Sorted. Such a lucky fellow am I!!

Gek's Third Solo Exhibition - Assembly

Rebuilding the 20 over display frames with our new friend Sunn and me with a Mullet. Well a sort of Mullet.

With the help of Sunn, Choon Ean and Marni at the end of the first day's setting up we had only the sail paintings to put together.  Thanks guys.

Gek's Third Solo Exhibition - Ready to Install

Suddenly this seems a big space.  Our kit has sort of disappeared in to it.  Now we have to reassemble and expand to create an installation.

Gek's Third Solo Exhibition - On the Move

A truck with hired help to get all the kit up to Georgetown.  These guys moved my two doll houses last year when we moved apartment without a scratch on either. Master Movers!!

Gek's Third Solo Exhibiton - Packed

Well, every thing is packed to go.  And if you are wondering where the art is, it is outnumbered by the 'props'.  The whole lot is about one truck load,  we hope.
