Melton council is presenting Unwind, Colourful Mind as the summer exhibition program at the Caroline Springs Gallery.
In Unwind, Colourful Mind, artist Lukas Kasper explores the raw, unfiltered expressions of his turbulent journey through Melbourne’s vibrant art scene. It reveals his three-year odyssey and captures inspirations, internal struggles and fleeting influences
Kasper, based in Melbourne’s western suburbs, specialises in painting murals and draws inspiration from a diverse range of experiences.
His journey into the world of art began in 2009, fuelled by the influences of street art, graffiti and skateboarding culture.
Kasper has had a whirlwind career that has taken him to Canada, the US, Indonesia and Thailand. His current artwork focuses on mental health, animals and the environment.
He uses a range of painting techniques to seamlessly blend traditional street art, colour, native flora and fauna, and flowing line work to create his unique style.
“This body of work came from a mixture of subconscious thoughts and surrounding
Inspirations,’’ he said.
“Due to this ever changing process there’s not one distinct narrative I’m looking to get across from the subject matter. Although I would hope that it makes the viewer feel, think and construct their own personal narrative and connection to the artwork.’’
