We've all heard about palindromes such as "Murder for a jar of Red Rum" or "Live on, time, emit no evil"; but what five artists are about to show us will extend upon these and tell us all about the potentials of language. More than a delicious Pacific fish, Sweet Lip is here to tell you about the power and possibility of language with the aid of the moving image.
Taking some influence from words gone wrong, misunderstandings, plans never hatched, and taking a less talk more rock approach to language, these videos take what technology has created and imagines a future for believers. Artists included in this show are Joe Briekers, Leandro Cardoso, Sam Cranstoun, Eve Roleston, and Chris Howlett, who'll be showcasing their work at Accidentally Annie Street Space, that old chestnut of a Queenslander in Auchenflower. Head across town if you feel like Shakespeare is getting a bit old!

FourThousand is a subcultural guide to Brisbane, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Brisbane writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence FourThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
