Paris: Bom.K – “Vertiges & Somnolences”

1 Comment

Bom.K - Vertiges et Somnolences

French graffiti artist Bom.k has launched his first ever solo show, Vertiges et Somnolence (Dizziness & Drowsiness), at Galerie Itinerrance in Paris, showcasing a series of large scale canvases, drawings, and sculptures. With a unique way to paint with spray cans, distorting caps for an ultimate precision of the lines, the founder of the Da Mental Vaporz crew invites the viewer into his world of disturbing hybrid creatures and urban landscapes. The result is breathtaking.

London: Pete Hawkins – Behind closed doors

Pete Hawkins - Behind closed doors

Painter Pete Hawkins returns to returns to The Outsiders with a new solo exhibition, Behind Closed Doors, featuring  a series of miniature modern fables painted on antique doors. “Doors hold a lot of meaning,” explains Pete, “and not only as transitional points in people’s lives. There’s the inherent sense of nostalgia they bear. Plus,” as children’s writer C S Lewis knew only too well, “there’s the compelling suggestion of what may
lie behind them.”

Pete Hawkins’ Behind Closed Doors is a gateway to the corners of your imagination.
