Demon Hell Riders - Motorbike Show Room 29/0711

 

Demon Hell Riders - Petro and friends.

One week to set up, for one evening only. Go-karts, mechanics and a garage.

The devil was certainly in the detail.

There was a video to go with this installation, of the Demon Hell Riders go-karting action adventure.  I've been reliably assured this video and some images will be put online at some point, but unfortunately Petro's internet presence is quite low (I was nagging him to up it!) but he has a tumblr of his photos, so show it some love http://theallotment2011.tumblr.com

 

 

Upfest 2011 - Friday - Herakut/Case/Inkie/Lokey

A beautiful way to the start the weekend, and the sun is still shining on South Bristol!

Herakut painting the Tobacco Factory building facing the Aldi car park.

I will never get bored of seeing this everyday.

And as I took in my evening dog walk with the sun setting on North Street, the shops shutters were being painted by Bristol's finest.


The ever-charming (and prolific!) Inkie painting with Cheo & Lokey.

Also took in the View Art Gallery show 'Archetypes' - Herakut, Futura, Jago, Case, Remi/Rough, Kaws, Pam Glew.  The gallery had a photographer taking shots all night, so check out their website in a couple of days and the catalogue is online to check out the work www.viewartgallery.co.uk   

Case opposite the View Gallery on the petrol station.  He will be carrying on around the station the next day.

Inkie/Sepr/3Dom - Croft - Shiv Lizzy

I think the strength of the Stoke Crofts open air gallery, is the constant change, artists trying out new ideas and the fact they can still pull in a name or two. In the last six months a couple of memorial pieces have gone up for Bear (poet, and Croft resident) which were quite wonderful.  So I was really pleased to see such a beautiful memorial piece with respect to Shiv Lizzy (Shivon Watson, 28) who was tragically killed in London earlier this year.

Here's some progress shots from the new Inkie/Sepr/3Dom.

I did a double take when first viewing these images, pity my name is too short to make a bicycle frame - wonderful work by Juri Zaech.
