17 January 2019

At the end of November, Swanky Array returned to Mothership Studios for the third installment of their showcase of local music, art, photography and this time around, clothing. Headlined by New Zealand rapper, singer and songwriter Tapz Gallantino, and MC’d by the charismatic Massy, the event was a fitting display of the music, art and culture Sydney has to offer. 📷 @dannydraxx

Massy kept the energy going through the night, introducing each new act, keeping the hype levels high and the crowd engaged for every act.

Ms. Thandi playing later in the night, delivering mellow R&B tunes to an attentive crowd more keen to chill than jump around.

Some of the photography displayed by Otti Lawson (@ottilawson) at Swanky Array 03. From the words of the artist himself: “All these images have been taken in a period of personal transition where I’ve learnt lessons and experienced growth in many different areas of my life. I try to put as much feeling into the photographs as I can, these are a few of my favourite.”
