An article about Lucy Culliton and Archer Davies’ new exhibitions ‘Ekka’ and ‘Arenas’ has been published on online Queensland-focused news site, InDaily. The InReview feature by Phil Brown touches on the theme of the exhibitions and each artist’s unique rendering of their ‘Ekka experience’. Both artists travelled to Brisbane in 2024 to attend the Royal Queensland Show (or ‘Ekka’ for short), and took creative inspiration from their time spent wandering the RNA show grounds, making sketches and studies of various show icons, event participants, animals and punters.
