Poor dead Oscar

R.I.P mon petit sparrow- sadly Oscar died shortly after this shot- but I can happily say I gave him the best last day of his short little life! And yes I am the bird charmer.

Sickboy- Stay Free




Sickboy, is a Brighton born london based graffiti artist- his first solo exhibition "Stay Free" launched on 3rd December, epitomizing the counter-cultural mantra built into street art. The show invite features a picture of Sickboy's caged heart that he put outside the Tate Modern to protest the corporate sponsorship of a graffiti show.
The installation includes traditional paintings and prints, but centre stage is the "Stay Free Factory"- a custom built 'wendy house' with a running conveyor belt, constructed from patch-worked leather covered with tag logos. Inside the factory are balaclava-jumpsuit clad workers creating small packaged and signed sweets for visitors to take home.
One thousand golden keys were given out with the winning key unlocking the ownership of the £20,000 factory. 



Sticker It up right nice



Inspired by New York skate/street brands, I have produced a sticker- with the intention that it will generate free advertising. So I am in the process of spreading the word. Pictures were taken outside the Sickboy exhibition Old Street.

Anthony Lister


I was lucky enough to meet and hang out with Anthony during my time in New York, as well as when he was around for his Elms Lester show in London this summer. I find him incredibly inspirational, he is so charged with enthusiasm, he works like crazy, turning out pieces like a machine, gets invited to travel around the world, exhibiting his work and drawing inspiration in the process, yet still he remains incredibly humble. And to top it all off he is only 28! 

Anthony Lister has made a career in doing what he loves. his work suggests influences from a number of areas- including street art, expressionism, pop art and contemporary drug culture. it often deals with subject matter from popular culture, reflecting the less glamorous aspects. He has said that "Tv is the contemporary mode of meditation" and that "Australians are raised by Americans on TV". Lister's children have had a profound impact on his work, drawing inspiration from "Watching what [his[ own children watch on TV" and "what they are bombarded with". He has often stated that he is not trying to make a statement with his work but to reflect the world around him.

(New Lister work (above) posted on Wooster Collective. His work just gets better and better, Lister brings his gallery worthy paintings to the walls for all to see. More Lister work to be posted later!)
