Description

It took Melbourne's Jeremy Geddes over 5 years to make his newest solo show, Periphery, for Thinkspace Projects, and it's been over a decade since he last had a show all together. He is a patient man, a man who loves the details, making personal and universal works that are about the human condition in relation to explorations of space, our soul and our relationship the technology all around us. He is an explorer of the smallest details, a painter who doesn't just have the technical skill of past masters from centuries before, but a problem of solver of the self.


So it took him 5 years to make this show, and, while on the plane to Los Angeles in the first week of January, 2025, it took Los Anglees a few hours to be changed forever. Time is fascinating that way; an artist and mother nature have different schedules.


Speaking of schedules, we schedules this conversation with Jeremy a few weeks ago, just before he made his trip to Los Angeles for the solo show at Thinkspace Projects, his first solo show in over a decade and a culmination of work made since 2019. Before the pandemic, to now. Quite a significant moment for him, and for us, a moment to connect with a past cover artist, a vital artist in our history.


As fires were ravaging LA's hills and communities, Jeremy and I had this conversation with heavy hearts. With heavy minds. Past guest of Radio Juxtapoz, featured artists in the magazine, friends, family, colleagues, all lost homes in these fires. Friends, family and colleagues have homes threatened right now, as I recond this. It’s a tragedy, it’s unthinkable, it’s been quite unimaginable.


In this conversation, Jeremy and I speak about that attention to detail, about how he sees the scope of his life finally seeing this show all together and how much of his work isn't informed by science fiction but our need to explore what it is that moves us, no matter how small or how significant. —Evan Pricco
