Regular Product’s Guide to Sydney

I’ve only been living in Sydney for the last year and it takes
a lot of getting used to after 8 years in London. But I’m finally starting to
get the hang of it. There’s plenty of good bars, great beaches, ace places to
eat and amazing views everywhere, but I’ve made 5 choices of things that I dig
personally and taken pics of them because I’m no tourist guide.

Windfair Company Book Stationary

Fantastic book/junk
shop in Chinatown with all sorts of weird shit left over from the 70s sitting on
dusty shelves. Including the picture book Dragon Tiger Doublesword Style by Dr.
Leung Ting. And also a great place to pick up that flat black Chinese ink.

2. That hand on top of that old pub on Bourke
St.

/>If I wasn’t already doing hands before I saw this, I’d claim it was my total
inspiration. I have fantasies about stealing it.

3.
Surprises.

/>The scene in Sydney is probably not as broad or prolific as other cities I
have spent time in and I lot of the more
obvious street work is from
international or interstate visitors, but every now and again you come across a
beautiful piece like you’ve never seen anywhere before and everything is okay
again.

4. Various walls

/>There are loads of walls around the place covered in random stuff by people
who wouldn’t necessarily identify with ‘street art’. It’s great that there’s so
much crap around, political stuff, art,  nonsense, love letters, skipping girls
(there are about 50 of them)  and other weird shit. These pics are from Newtown
and Redfern.

5. Extras

/>Our Spot is a great little gallery/shop in Darlinghhurst which has held
exhibitions by loads of fresh artists and stock a
kickass tshirt range.
Most recently was the Sneaker Freaker 3 launch party with visual skills supplied
by YOK and Victim (left). Gallery Wren is another good space to check out with
an eclectic exhibition list and is also a part time clothes shop, stocking small
local designers
