East End Prints !!! Take A Seat (or two)

This Thursday the 2nd of December sees the launch of East End Prints at the East London Design show at Shoreditch town hall. Swiftly followed by a pop-up print shop at Maiden on shoreditch high street. My work is available along side that of 40 other emerging and established artists and designers. Unfortunately I won't be there in person as I am now in the snowy north, semi nomadic and semi hibernating. But if you're in London this weekend go along and check it out and start your christmas shopping!

Hand Pulled.........

This week was opening of Will Barras' new solo show "Bad Reception" at StolenSpace gallery.
I've spent the week screen printing the limted edition print of Will's work. See the pics below and maybe go and get yourself one from StolenSpace by clicking here.
Keep your eyes pealed for these guys, "Crackney's Finest. Now popping up all over the joint. I printed these beauties for Ronzo - Vandal extraordinaire to help build up some hype for his upcoming show at StolenSpace. Fun times.

Jack Frost Has Found Us.

He's broken his bonds and is on the loose,
his icy breath blowing the kind of winds that cut right through-ya.
(or something similar.)

I Must Not Fear, Fear Is The MInd-Killer.


Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

Don't Panic!......it's over now.


The end of a very busy two weeks arrived last night with the opening of 'Wild Fantasies-A decade of Don't Panic! posters' at Stolen Space gallery. I was part of the Stolen Space crew hand screen printing 10 limited edition posters being sold 'blind tubed' on the night. £50 a pop an they all sold. The best part is that I got to meet Mike Ramsden from BBC London News. Amazing! Check out the little video here, and head on over to the Don't Panic website to see some more of the screen printing magic and an interview with D*Face, one of the artists who created a poster for the show. enjoy. Next time.......Riz Lateef!

talk about jam packed with links!

This Was The Week That Was.

Tube strike, massive rain, Blitz spirit, back and forth, 5am starts, EVEN MASSIVER RAIN, 7pm finishes, general stiff-upper-lip situations and sweat.

Suburban Commando=Not Hulk Hogan=Me


Today I have been featured by the awesome blog Proxart, (click this to go and check it out).

I really appreciate what this blog / magazine is up to. Shining a light on all the artistic talent beavering away in suburbs around the world, so add them to your reading list. In their own words they'll "make your suburban life suck a little less.".
Also, there will be a more in-depth interview with me in the forthcoming issue of Proxart magazine, september 22nd. So check that out too. (or the wolf boy will get you)

Skateboarding Makes Me Happier......

Though, to be honest, I've always thought of myself as more of an 'aggressive rollerblader'
Last week I was invited to become a part of Artsprojekt.com which is a great opportunity to use my work in loads of cool ways. Right now I think I am going to concentrate on skate decks. So visit my artsprojekt store and check them out, while you're there have a gander at the other great artists involved. Such as Shephard Fairey, Caia Koopman and Jeremyville to name but a few.

Sold Out Tunnels....


The Old Vic Theatre's 'Dark Carnival: Notes from the Underground' was a sell-out success. So sorry if you didn't manage to get to see it. Well done if you did. My work was situated in the middle tunnel with the bar (always a winner) sharing space with Ignore the forecast and their Tree of Lost things.

The Badd News Boys and Good Time Gals sat really nicely amongst the cafe tables and hundreds of luggage tags hanging from the ceiling.



Ignore the Forecast invited everyone to add a luggage tag detailing something they had lost, they then logged it in a MASSIVE book and hung it with the countless other lost items. I was fortunate enough to receive a found marble in return for participating, a nice green one which really did take the edge off. thanks guys. There were lots of other things to see in the dark and gloomy tunnels, cabaret, films, theatre and dance. Congrats to everyone involved!

The Dark Carnival



I have spent most of today in the dark, beneath London's Waterloo train station. The Old Vic Theatre has asked me to contribute some of my work to their 'Dark Carnival: Notes from the underground' event this Friday and Saturday.

Dark Carnival is an exciting cross art form celebration of what is best and most innovative about London, and indeed International, performance and art.

The Old Vic Tunnels will be host to a Carnival complete with a small cinema, art gallery, performances from the theatre world, cabaret, circus and music, and interactive installations. All simultaneously fusing a sound and sight spectacular. What will you see?

If you can't make it along, don't worry, I'll post some photos of what went down next week.

Add a Little Bit of You.

After the success of my mural in the Leeds Urban Outfitters, Kaz, the store manager, asked me to create a piece of work "backstage" for all the staff to enjoy, and here it is. A giant colouring book on the wall. Now all the staff can 'add a little bit of themselves' to the store. amazing.
