SELECTED ARTWORKS BY CHRIS O’DOHERTY AKA REG MOMBASSA VIEWING BY APPOINTMENT ONLY Christopher O’Doherty, also known as Reg Mombassa, is an Australian musician and artist. He is known for his membership in bands Mental as Anything, Dog Trumpet and The Pinks. He worked with Mambo Graphics designing T-shirts and posters since 1986 and exhibited paintings, drawings and prints at Watters Gallery from 1975 to 2018. Beneath the humour in his work lies the expression of serious insights and sympathies. O’Doherty’s oeuvre is shaped from allegorical landscapes that create lingering, enigmatic sensations to both invite and unsettle his audience. His depictions of the familiar Australian landscape are imbued with an atmosphere of the immaterial to build a soft pulsing anticipation and gnawing stillness within his work. In the words of Australian art historian Chris McAuliffe, “In O’Doherty’s hands, every horizon hides an unreachable place where we long to be, every hillside implies an opposing slope that we’ll never know”. His diverse range of projects also includes taking part in solo and group art shows in Australia, New Zealand, Italy, USA, France, Britain, China and Thailand. He has had a survey show at the S.H. Ervin gallery in 2007 and Manly Gallery and Museum in 2018 with his brother Peter O'Doherty. His designs were featured in the Closing Ceremony of the Sydney Olympic Games in 2000, and he designed the graphics for the 2013 Sydney New Year’s Eve celebrations. In 2001 the Victorian Tapestry Workshop invited Reg to contribute a design for a 2 metre square section of a 43.5 metre long Federation Tapestry to be completed and installed in the Melbourne Museum. Subsequently they made 4 more tapestries based on his designs, which were unveiled at the Tapestry Workshop Gallery in Melbourne in 2002. Additionally in 2002 Reg was selected by the Melbourne based Visible Art Foundation to have 3 of his works very enlarged to make an installation on the outside of the Republic Tower building in Collins Street, Melbourne. A biography The Life and Times of Reg Mombassa was written by Murray Waldren and published by Harper Collins in 2009. The Landscapes of Reg Mombassa was published by P.Q. Blackwell in 2016.
