No Vacancy Gallery, 27-33 Red Cape Ln, QV, Melbourne.
Opening night: Friday 13th of February 7pm to 10pm

Witness a spectacle of playing card finesse in a show like no other featuring nineteen Australian artists from Street Art, Comic, and Illustration backgrounds. Suit up was formed as a collaboration in the true sense of the word with four artists working together to create a theme for each suit and bringing stylistic cohesion to the deck as a whole. Each artwork is lavishly detailed and stunning in its own right, playing cards have never looked so good. Featuring:
SPADES: Kid Zoom, Simon Childerhouse, TwoOne, Itch
HEARTS: Dylan McCrae, Karl Kwansy, Sam McKenzy, Sheldon Vella
DIAMONDS: Reka, Phibs, Meggs, Sync
CLUBS: Yok, Noir, Drew, Claudio Mantuano
JOKERS: Sean Kelly, LoungeKat
With the stylings of Nate Holmes-Trapnell
