About Me
- es.o.ter.ic
- Esoteric Illusions is the work of 9 local artists, who aim to create a space where diverse practices come together to create something which cannot be defined by medium or the individual artist's intention. When exhibited together, the works create a dialogue and take on new meanings in the momentary context. The exhibition explores work from print makers, textile artists to ceramicists and multi media artists. In the simplest of terms ’Esoteric illusions’ highlights the irony and illusion of the ‘exclusive pretention’ of modern art, which is actually enjoyed by the masses. In promoting ideas of blurred lines between practices, the title allows the exhibitors to let their ideas absorb their work without restrictions of a themed exhibition. Though each artists work is individually created and stands alone, when viewed as part of the show, curated in the beautiful location of the Walcott Chapel, they are complimentary and allow further meanings and implications to spring forth. The exhibition shall take place between the 4th and 10th April 2010 at The Walcott Chapel, Bath.

'Skinhead Stamper' A small preview of a comic strip by Andy Hughes.
My good chum is creating a zine for the Bristol music scene, and rather stupidly, asked me to come up with a comic strip for it. I have made a rough drawing to give him an idea what the front cover for it will look like...and hey presto.
Skinhead Stamper follows the misadventures of a moronic, beer swilling, racist, ignorant English football fan. The locations vary from council flats, canals (where he tossed the body of his pregnant girlfriend) and the Northern English streets. He is a disgusting character and the material is purely satire. I am also illustrating a friends novel so I will post pictures as I am doing much work on them in the upcoming week or so.

Do not worry, the exhibit will not be filled with these filthy drawings. My paintings are quite different. :)
