Art: The Complete Hipgnosis Catalogue is exactly what the title suggests: a full feature of design collective Hipgnosis, showcasing groundbreaking cover art created for iconic rock 'n' roll giants including Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, and Pink Floyd to name a few.
Quadraphonic Coats is a new exhibition by Wellington-born and Sydney-based artist Vita Cochran.
In exploring modernist forms and feminist histories, Cochran sources vintage coats from across decades, unpicks them, and repurposes them into something else.
In this way, Cochran describes this exhibition, Quadraphonic Coats, as a multi-generational gathering.
Sofia spoke to Vita about the exhibition and some of the feminist themes in her practice.
