Callum Preston: Paint Your Local Supermarket & Blow Up A Delorean

02/11/25 • 56 min

CALLUM PRESTON is a designer, painter, installation artist and of course: Man About Town. If you live in Melbourne, you would've seen his artwork around the city and you may not have even realised it. We chat about his approach to cold calling the people and places that he wants to work with, the role of artwork and creativity in friendships and local communities, setting insects on fire at a young age and of course: what it's like to build and then blow up a Delorean.

You can check out Callum's current exhibition Video Land - a recreation of an entire video store - at the Immigration Museum in Melbourne.

Check out Tommy's short travel documentary Sketchy Memory on Youtube.

Come and see Tommy's new show 'Main Character' in Melbourne from March 26, and then Sydney and Brisbane in May. Tickets: TommyDassalo.com

This week Tommy's up in Sydney, looking out over a crowded office with guest BECKY LUCAS!

We discover a mutual fascination for buildings that seem cursed to never have a successful business inside them and we break down every person on Earth into our own new categories. Plus, we test out some of our new impressions.

Go see Becky touring her new show 'Things Have Changed, But The Essence Remains' around the country.
