Up and Coming shows



Since the show at The Arches things have been quiet with regards to me displaying work however that is about to change in the up and coming months with the first show kicking off in Leicester. My self and the rest of the M8 Collective (a Glasgow based collective of artists) will be involved in 'Sole Elements' during the Bass Festival. There will be of course custom kicks by myself and other sneaker influenced artwork yet it is not just a sneaker show, there will be original artwork, photography and prints. Entry is free and will be during the 28th and 29th of June. Hope to see you there is you are in or near the Midlands.



The second stop is across the water in Belfast in July for an exhibition hosted by Candy Collective Talk . I will be displaying work with fellow family members of Xynthetic as well as hopefully doing some live painting and my man Gav Strange will be doing a Q&A alongside Ben Drury from Mo Wax. I will let you know more as things progress with this one so stay tuned.

Been working on some new decks for these shows as well as other paintings in my studio.



'Via Condotti' skateboard.



'Untitled' pattern skateboard



There are 5 of these skateboards available which are for sale via my online shop and I will be taking some to The Bass Festival.



The other week I headed up to Dundee for the degree show to show my support to my good friend Scott Hobbs as he unveiled his innovation product to the world. The people who came to have a look were loving Scott's product which is easy to believe.





It is called the Attigo TT and the TT stands for Touch Tables, and I have had a go on them and they are amazing fun. The sound waves from the Mp3 file run vertically up the screen an allow you to que up the beat as well as scratch, pitch control, play the beat backwards and when switched off it slows down as a 12 inch record would. Check out the vid below to see the final product in action.
