Ryan The Wheelbarrow, Live Fashion Vandalism/Know One’s Business, 2012
An emerging and popular artist from Miami, Ryan the Wheelbarrow is a painter, “fashion vandal” and custom designer of collectable vinyl art toys for the sophisticated and stylish youth market. Unusually for an urban interventionist he works with typography and letters to create overlapping, intense and colourful canvasses but as well as exhibiting his paintings, in a two day event Ryan the Wheelbarrow invites members of the public to join the art process and get their clothes screen-printed live for a small fee of £10 per person – thus creating a wearable 1of1 work of art. This will be the first time RtW will have exhibited outside of the United States.
Exhibition in Lower Church Gallery.
Live Fashion Vandalism – the public performance will take place in the Lower Church Gallery at 3pm on Friday 16th, Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th August. This is a paid performance. Entry will be paid for at the door.
Mon—Sun, 11am—9pm
September: 11am-6pm
Free admission
