The Launch of the Clothespeg Project at Lala Orange brought together a collection of the cool, the creative for the opening last Wednesday May 21.

In the first hour most of the 90 pieces by local artists from diverse backgrounds including graphic design, photography, illustration, tatoo artistry, textile design, painting, street art and sculpture had sold.

Although most have sold it’s worth swinging in to check the work out, as the project runs till June 21 and is a strong collective show.
