Flume and Jonathan Zawada announce pop-up exhibition in Sydney & Melbourne

Today, Flume and Jonathan Zawada reveal details of their newest collaboration, Bred 4 Luck, a gallery exhibition and merch pop-up in Sydney and Melbourne this November.

Bred 4 Luck explores the world of Flume’s third studio album Palaces and invites fans to step inside the infinitely vivid mind of Flume’s longtime collaborator and neighbour, artist Jonathan Zawada. During the making of the record, he and Zawada became fascinated by local wildlife in Australia’s Northern Rivers, where they reside. Inspired by the luxury and magic of nature, Flume created an epic and expansive body of work, which was brought to life visually by Zawada.

The pop-up exhibition features a collection of artworks and objects from the Palaces world, including the iconic technicolour Motorbike from Flume’s ‘Say Nothing’ music video, directed by Michael Hili. Limited edition collaborative prints and merch items designed by Zawada will be made available exclusively at the pop-up exhibition, alongside a new coffee table book produced by Australia’s leading design house, Semi Permanent.

Zawada is known for his multi-faceted approach to the field of art and design. Informed by his early roots in web design, coding and commercial graphic design, Zawada’s art process includes object and furniture design, sculpture, video, installation and painting. Blending the artificial and the natural, his world is hyperreal — delicate, intricately detailed, bold and dynamic.

The Bred 4 Luck pop-up hits Sydney and Melbourne amid Flume’s national Palaces tour, which kicked off to a sold-out crowd in Perth last week. Featuring special guests Toro Y Moi, Channel Tres, Vera Blue and appearances from MAY-A, the tour is Flume’s first Australian run of shows since releasing Palaces in May 2022.
