Explore acclaimed Melbourne artist Rick Matear's latest exhibit of works titled 'Freecycling' which investigates his creative connection and moments of deep contemplation that occur while bike riding.

The Freecycling collection includes over 30 pieces taking Rick's love for riding and combining this with his profound analysis of different aspects of life and current affairs producing imaginative and light-hearted visual portrayals the juxtapose social norms.

"Riding my bike to work each day is a source of inspiration. It is often when new ideas for my paintings come to me. Some of the concepts for this exhibition were born on those rides. Cycling is more than just a creative spark though. It is a way to stay grounded both mentally and physically and it aligns with my commitment to sustainability in my art and my life." - Rick Matear.

Running concurrently with Freecycling is Rick's Art Class Exhibition which showcases selected works from some of the talented emerging artists that attend his lessons. This is Rick's first-ever student showing at the Abbotsford Convent.

Rick Matear's Freecycling and Art Class Exhibition is free to attend and open daily at St Heliers Street Gallery from Sunday 24 November - Sunday 22 December.
