Earlier this month I took part in "Raw Meat presents Loading" in London, an art show celebrating video games as well as raising money for the National Autistic Society. The event included a retro games tournament, games themed music, live drawing and live Street Fighter costumed wrestling from Lucha Britannia.
Here's my contribution, cut out of 1/4 inch thick board all hand drawn with posca paint markers:
“When We Were Young” is my first show as a curator and features a collection of nostalgic artwork from a range of international artists (including Autumn Society star German Orozco), the artists were given an open brief to be a free as when they were young and doodle, draw, paint whatever they want from their younger years, whether it be toys, games, books, music, experiences, role models etc.
On opening night there will be free booze and sweets as well as live drawing from the Cloud Commission and myself all set to a soundtrack of kids tv tunes and ad jingles.
My first solo show opened in Newcastle, UK featuring a range of brand new hand drawn, pop inspired artwork all rendered on wood in my usual chaotic, monochrome style.
