Melbourne based artist Pimpisa Tinpalit returns to break a bowl of tea over the bow of Grau Projekt to celebrate the reopening of the art space. Known for her large spatial and conceptual installations that transform the materiality of everyday objects to a reimagined eminence, Silence #1.5 will push the artist to a level of medium diversity and scale. 

This ambitious and expansive new solo exhibition will stretch across Grau Projekt’s cavernous Clifton Hill location, which remains Australia’s largest contemporary gallery.

Silence #1.5 celebrates Pimpisa’s multimedia oeuvre to include video, painting, sculpture and a live performance with her signature Shibari crafted rope.

ARTIST CURATED (TEA) DRINKING - TINPALIT TEA HUT

Grau Projekt's signature manoeuvre is a concept titled ‘artist-curated drinking’ where every show is celebrated with drinks created to underline the mood and philosophy of the exhibition. Pimpisa has created a contemplative tea hut to welcome art fans back and Matcha tea guru’s SAMU have been engaged for this instalment of curated imbibing.

The mind and body benefits of ritual tea drinking are well recognised and appropriately revered and serve as the perfect return tipple for a new world emerging from the challenges of Covid-19.

Private Solo and Couple Tea meditations can be secured by online bookings only and adhere to strict capacity health and precautions. Tea Meditation with ceremonial grade single-origin Matcha. Price is $15 for one guest or $25 for two guests.
