The
visual artist simply known as greg will show over 30 of his stunning new
photomontages in The Rocks from Friday 31 July 2015.
greg makes the maximum out of the minimum as he saturates his photographs in vivid colour to heighten each other’ effect. He also strips back the composition down to its very bare essentials, eliminating any unwanted detail.
Throughout the month you can see an evolving artwork painted in coffee and a photography exhibition of local coffee makers and appreciators, join a latte art workshop, and win more than $3,000 worth of prizes, including a Breville Oracle® Espresso Machine, by voting for your favourite brew in the Aroma Cup.
See it all and much more as roasters grind, baristas pour, milk froths, machines whirr, music drifts and thousands of cups are filled, sampled and sipped at the main event on Sunday 26 July.
Take the time to enjoy everything you love about coffee at The Rocks Aroma Festival. #AromaFestival #The Rocks

An exhibition of approximately 30 chosen artists from the Sydney Street Photographers Group as part of Head On Festival 2015
The images, by their very nature will indirectly expose the viewer to the nuances and passions of the photographers themselves, and often give a glimpse of the difficulties associated with the capturing of ‘street’ work.
The essence of this sometimes controversial art form is to discover the ability to observe and document society as it is, unpredictable, random, spontaneous…and as in any art form, many aspects need to come together to provide the viewer with a ‘memorable’ portrayal of the genre.
