My collab with zipper company YKK has now officially kicked off at their London Showroom in Shoreditch – feel free to have a nose at the PINStallation which is on view through til May, featuring some classic / fresh artworks all connected in a rather ziptastic way exploring consumerism, mental health and social media.
Mon – Fri 9am – 5pm (Windows / Buzz upon entry / No shutter artwork outside)Â
Sat / Sun Closed (Shutter artwork viewable outside)
Super proud by the way this all came together, particularly through the personal connections and team spirit of everyone involved, so really hope you get to experience it…*Labour of love vibesÂ
Team love Carlossa, Kazza, Diana, Georgina, Harks, David & Colin
YKK love Kei, Sabine, Anna & Funto
Extra special love to Katie and her mum for making it happen from the start 🙂
I spend most of my time absorbed in cultural spaces and places – whether they be museums, galleries, hotels, cafes, libraries, whatever…yet when you think about it…a cultural space can be anywhere which connects with you, uplifts your day, or just celebrates shared values…
Living in Thornton Heath for almost 12 years and spending most of my time outside the local area on the work front – you gradually find yourself realising the potential of local spaces around you – often unused or derelict, and with creative interjection, can actually enrich and enhance the well-being of communities living there…
So take Ambassador House, a disused, run-down building opposite Thornton Heath station, and why not creatively interject and pop up a temporary gallery celebrating local creative talent in the hope of bringing some brighter vibes to an often neglected, anti-social space…?…
