The Helen Gory Galerie is proud to present Diction – the first solo exhibition in Melbourne by West Australian based artist Stormie Mills opening on 16 September.

Stormie Mills launched his career as a visual artist 25 years ago, making his first mark on the art world as a 15 year old with a passion to be heard through his work.

He’s since carved a distinctive niche that has seen him sited in a global context as a highly collectable contemporary street artist.

Stormie boasts an impressive international career working across the globe producing large scale commissions and exhibitions in Barcelona, London, Tokyo, and Los Angeles.

Working predominately in a palette for grey, black and white, Stormie creates evocative characters as an expression of emotions and observations. Diction continues Stormie’s theme of examining the fragility of life.

Following on from sell-out exhibitions in 2007 and 2008, Stormie is bringing his thought provoking characters to Melbourne for the first time.

Stormie made his first mark on the art world as a teenager launching his passionate pursuit to be heard through his work. Decorating his grey urban landscape was Stormie’s version of night school and ironically breaking the law is how he got his first big break, gaining a reputation as an emerging contemporary artist.

From a misspent youth, living in a run-down warehouse with no electricity or running water, Stormie has emerged as one of the country’s most collectable street artists.

Diction is on display at Helen Gory Galeries from September 16 until October 3.

You are all invited to the opening night on Wednesday 16th September at 6.30PM.

We look forward to seeing you there!
