Superb work as always by , local legend on the streets of London.

Lateral Thoughts’
Spray paint, acrylic and oil on canvas
80 x 80cm

DM for more details.

From a layered concrete tower in a greater London council estate, a young .EPOD soaked up 1980s TV Sci-Fi and Boom-Box Hi-Fi. The worlds of Ralph McQuarrie and Syd Mead drew his eye, while Melle Mel and Mantronix had his ear.

Studying art & design in the early 90s, he immersed himself in the London urban arts scene which at the time was going through something of a renaissance with genre defying works in graffiti and hip-hop emerging at pace. Inspired, he shook up a can and wrote .EPOD.

His professional skillset (draftsman, fashion designer and illustrator) and the inspirations of his youth manifest vividly in his paintings and murals. Sultry figures draped in elegant materials. Mirrored vessels in otherworldly landscapes. Ci******es hanging from kiss me lips.

His forms ooze luxury, shimmering reflections of allure that while his own wink back at traditions within urban art and visions of the future.

B-Boys, Sly-Girls and Other-Worlds.

ARTIST SPOTLIGHT :

'A Beautiful Day Outside'
Acrylic on canvas
81 x 92cm (2024)
Mysterious Al is an artist making dangerous paintings for dangerous people. He rose to fame in the early 2000’s through the explosion of street art, developing a notoriety for his wall paintings, paste-ups and street installations alongside his contemporaries D*face, Banksy and Shantell Martin.

“Working as an Artist on the street, you come across some funny situations. Dangerous places, dodgy people and a lot of criminal trespassing. Nowadays my work is bright, colourful and fun, but it has a dark past. I like to reference this darkness in a fun and colourful way. Like a kids book on drug-dealing”.
Al’s artistic practice works outside of the traditional gallery model, producing blockbuster exhibitions in unusual locations like abandoned warehouses, disused shopfronts and even a funfair ghost train.

Errol Theunissen will be coming to BSMT this November, with his debut solo exhibition ‘Chroma’ opening with a private view on November 7th. . The show features a stunning collection of oil paintings and mixed media pieces that reflect Theunissen’s experiences as a self-taught artist who finds inspiration in his immediate environment. . Whether it’s family scenes, animals, or memories of home, Theunissen’s work captures emotions and stories through spontaneous, snapshot-like compositions. . Deeply influenced by his Zimbabwean heritage, his paintings invite the viewer into intimate moments from his everyday life, elevating the ordinary through bright colours and symbolism. . ‘Chroma’ will explore universal themes such as family, community, and memory, and it is Theunissen’s signature use of symbols within his paintings that encourages viewers to draw out personal interpretations and connections to his stories. The result is a visual narrative filled with both nostalgia and present-day reflections, woven through personal memories of Africa and his life in the UK. . . We invite you to join us for the opening night of ‘Chroma’ on November 7th, 2024. The show runs from November 8th to November 24th.
