Each year Devonport Regional Gallery selects an artist for a solo commission.  The artist receives some funds to put toward getting the show together.
John Vella was selected this year with his exhibition, Fume. “Fume looks at airspace and headspace as they relate to territory, environment and community.” The exhibition turned a few local heads, with such works as Dirty Bomb (a sealed plastic bottle containing a series of the artist’s farts) articulating the power of the individual to inflict (intentionally or otherwise) their internal machinations on the psyche and person of others.

Fume runs 8 September to 8 October 2006.
