Entropico announces ‘Come Together’ Exhibition + Accessible Art Fundraiser for Deadly Connections
1 creative studio. 20 artists working across photography, 3D graphics, illustration and typography. 2 print sizes. 1 weekend IRL. 2 weeks online. All proceeds to vital local not-for-profit organisation Deadly Connections Community & Justice Services Ltd.
Entropico, best known for producing the Netflix film ONEFOUR Against All Odds, as well as music videos for artists including Tasman Keith (‘Billy Bad Againʼ, Triple J’s Music Video of the Year), RÜFÜS DU SOL, and Baker Boy, is set to showcase a new side of their creativity next month. The Sydney-based creative studio – which also handles major campaigns for brands including Samsung, Country Road, YouTube and the NSW Government – will host a dynamic exhibition and accessible art sale at their Gadigal/Sydney creative studios in the first week of October.
The ‘Come Togetherʼ exhibition will feature over 20 artists from Entropico’s roster, displaying a wide range of mediums and styles. From expressionist photographers to pop illustrators, 3D artists and typographers, this diverse collection highlights the breadth of talent within Entropico. Limited edition prints of each work will be available for sale, with all proceeds benefiting Deadly Connections, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to supporting First Nations communities.

Says Erin Moy, founder of Entropico: “Entropico is a creative company that works between advertising and originals, and the creative space we work out of in Aus is also home to Deadly Connections – an organisation whose work we greatly admire. We have a really strong lineup of boundary-pushing creatives, and we wanted to come together and harness that diverse creativity for a great cause.”
Deadly Connections is an Aboriginal Community Controlled not-for-profit organisation committed to building strong, safe, and healthy communities by providing a culturally safe and respectful space for First Nations people to engage in healing, access culturally responsive services/programs, and participate in decision-making processes. Deadly Connections disrupts systemic racism, intergenerational disadvantage, grief, loss and trauma by providing holistic, culturally responsive interventions and services to First Nations people and communities, particularly those who have been impacted by the child protection and/or justice systems.

Says Carly Stanley, CEO of Deadly Connections: “‘Come Togetherʼ reflects the spirit of unity, the power of creativity, and the strength of community. Through this collaboration with Entropico and their talented artists, we not only raise vital funds and awareness for our work at Deadly Connections, but also celebrate the role of art in storytelling, healing, and inspiring change. This exhibition is a testament to the strength and resilience of collaboration, and we are deeply thankful to everyone involved for standing with us and supporting our mission.”
Open for one weekend only, ‘Come Togetherʼ will feature one work from each Entropico artist, available in two sizes and printed to order, with all funds raised going to Deadly Connections. If youʼre interstate or international, donʼt worry. Works will also be sold via an online web store for two weeks after the event.
