"Elanna Yellow By Agent X" |
"Agent X is an experimental multimedia artist, working at the forefront of contemporary art. His memorable moniker hints at the ungraspable nature of his art, while poignantly alluding to a brutal moment in American history: X signifies the last name commonly given to African American slaves. Working under this pseudonym, the elusive artist strives to honour the victims of this history, seeing himself as “a slave to my art in a twisted way.” ’Elanna (Yellow)’ depicts the mirrored silhouettes of a woman’s face in profile, her hair piled up in a chignon to expose her elegant neck. As if the double portraits have been snipped from the lemon-yellow background, Agent X has created the illusion of a cut-out, to reveal a Baroque, floral painting underneath. With its bold composition and its juxtaposition of the antique with the contemporary, the print is filled with explosive energy, in this powerful transference of street to canvas."

"Grand Piano By Gina Soden" |
"Gina Soden is a contemporary artist and photographer, whose work documents a reverie of architectural decay. Using the medium of the camera, Soden chart’s the slow and entropic passage of time, favouring a lyrical composition that breathes life back into the haunted spaces that time forgot. ’Grand Piano XL’ depicts the staircase of a large, abandoned house, the curve of its wrought-iron raining creating a beautiful compositional centrepiece. Once-decadent features have long since been ravished by time: a flagstone floor caked with dirt, stained glass windows admitting light through wreaths of cobwebs, and wooden wall panelling, filthy with merciless age. At the foot of the stairs crouches a piano, half hidden in the shadows, its ivory keys untouched beneath a thick layer of dust, silencing memories of melody. Soden breathes life into inanimate objects but, more than that, she breathes life into the very space, igniting it with the ghostly trace of now-absent figures. Profoundly beautiful, Soden’s haunting print speaks to our very human fascination with time, its passing, and all things ephemeral."

"Kaplica XL By Gina Soden" |
"Gina Soden is a contemporary artist and photographer, whose work documents a reverie of architectural decay. Using the medium of the camera, Soden chart’s the slow and entropic passage of time, favouring a lyrical composition that breathes life back into the haunted spaces that time forgot. ’Kaplica XL’ - its title taken from the Polish for ‘chapel’ - depicts the upper stories of an abandoned church, its silent dome once filled with the melodies of prayer and hymn. Now, only mice and dust stray into the sacred space, its crumbling rafters revealed in the shining light that no longer seems to symbolise divine presence. Yet, another kind of presence reveals itself in Soden’s print: the trace of absent figures, a story of human histories, suffusing the piece with a gently haunting quality. Profoundly beautiful, ‘Kaplica’ speaks to our very human fascination with time, its passing, and all things ephemeral."

"Laughter is Timeless - Red By Jake Jeffries" |
"Falmouth University graduate and full-time graphic designer Jake Jeffries has turned his sharp graphic sensibilities towards print making. Using clean, hard lines, minimalist compositions and monochrome palettes, Jeffries has followed in the footsteps of Pop Art giant Andy Warhol, by translating the iconic into print to create a cult classic. ‘Laughter is Timeless - Red’ depicts Disney’s favourite mouse, standing against a bright, raspberry coloured background. Jake Jeffries has texturised Mickey’s face and ears, adding thick, black polka-dots, and traces of cursive script while, in the top corner, the words “laughter is timeless, imagination has no age” are scrawled in tiny white lettering. The piece is rich with allusion, as hints of Warhol and Lichtenstein saturate the image to create a visually arresting print."

"Vapour By Dan Baldwin" |
"Contemporary artist Dan Baldwin speaks through his paintings, exploring themes of politics, religion, and innocence. Combining the sinister with the beautiful, Baldwin’s visually explosive work challenges its viewer, asking us to question surface appeal and to seek deeper meanings within every piece. Using a paired down, monochrome palette, ‘Vapour’ depicts a series of sketches: sets of skulls facing one another, surrounded by heart shapes, coffins, wreaths of barbed wire, and burning flames. With its quick, doodle aesthetic, the figurative begins to shade into the abstract, as themes of death and brutality are juxtaposed against a visual, child-like quality, for strong, conceptual prowess."

"Elephant Moon By Fei Alexeli" |
"Contemporary artist Fei Alexeli is known for her distinctly retro collages and cut-ups. Often depicting galactic vistas with magazine fragments of 1950s space-age visions of the future, her prints are simultaneously backward and forward looking, speaking to our present age by opening out the utopian spaces of escapism that contemporary society calls for. For ‘Elephant Space’ Alexeli has created an expansive night sky, flecked with tiny coloured lights, a silver moon hanging at its centre. Onto the luna orb, Alexeli has grafted and array of tropical palm fronds, spreading out around an open door, in front of which stands a woman, an elephant’s head in place of her own. Dream-like and surreal, bizarre and beautiful, ‘Elephant Space’ crafts a magical landscape from fragments of reality for a compelling work of contemporary art."

"Winkin Linkin By Prefab77" |
"Art collective Prefab77 take contemporary street art to new heights - literally. Their urban artworks to-date include awe-inspiring paste-ups in Newcastle and Brighton, each spanning the size of a three storey building. Their work relies on heavy texture, using collage techniques, thick application of gloss, and bounteous coatings of spray-paint, to create bold, busy and beautiful prints. ‘Winkin Linkin’ depicts a greyscale photograph of the illustrious Abraham Lincoln, surrounded by a kaleidoscopic array of pattern, type, and graphics and finished with a vintage, violet coloured wash. Using skilled, digital processes, the stoic President is seen to be winking out towards the viewer: a cheeky countenance for a serious statesman. Rich in texture and design, and dripping with wry humour, ‘Winkin Linkin’ is a triumph of contemporary street-to-canvas aesthetics."

"Pink Floyd By Kerry Roper" |
"London based artist Kerry Roper is known for his iconic woodcut prints. Having been included in a 2009-12 touring exhibition at the V&A, and his work used as the cover art for the accompanying book, Roper is held in high esteem in the world of contemporary street art. ‘Pink Floyd’ depicts a simple interior set-up: a bare wooden floor and a roughly plastered wall act as the backdrop to a small table and two metal chairs, one black, the other bubblegum pink. Above the table hangs a work of art, entirely comprised of words: ‘This colour &’, it reads, in a pink that matches the chair, ‘Floyd’, in the complementary black. It takes a second to register, but Roper’s print is in fact a conceptual depiction of the iconic rock band, Pink Floyd. With its satirical jab at modern minimalism, ‘Pink Floyd’ is a paragon of contemporary printmaking."

"Dancing Through The Apocalype By Euan Roberts" |
"Euan Roberts is a London based artist whose work explores the unspectacular using bright, childlike colours in thick acrylic paint. His syncopated compositions explore the everyday and the ignored to reflect the unrefined nature of humanity that contemporary culture seeks to repress. ’Dancing Through the Apocalypse’ forms part of Roberts’s recent body of work, which celebrates nature through a series of simple and organic scenes. Roberts has spilt the canvas in two, painting the bottom half jet black, and the top textured red, to depict a burning sky and charred desert. In the centre of the dystopian landscape, two green cactuses stand side by side, their branches linked as if hand in hand. Roberts characteristically revels in visual naivety, yet his colour and compositional techniques betray his artistic prowess: the electric palette and bold patterns are vivd and eye catching, drawing the viewer towards a moment brilliantly illuminated in paint."

"Winston Churchill By Dollarsandart" |
"Dollarsandart - the brain child of Dubai-based artist Jim Wheat - explores the significance of money in twenty-first century society, from both sides of the coin. His art explores the essential qualities of currency: that money makes the world go round, but that it can also act as a force for both good and evil. ‘Winston Churchill’ depicts the iconic Prime Minister, decked out in bowler hat and trademark cigar. His picture has been duplicated across four squares, each one washed with a neon colour in the style of Pop Art portraiture, and subtly emblazoned with the dollar sign. Focusing the trope of money through people, places, and occasions, Dollarsandart’s celebrity prints comment on the tense relationship between fame and finance in contemporary culture."

"I'll Bring You Flowers XL By Kid-B" |
"Kid-B is an emerging artist on the street-art scene. The creative artist behind female Bass music DJ ‘B-Trix Kiddo’, Kid-B translates her passion for beats onto the canvas, to create a street style that’s dripping with urban savvy. Mixing street-art with a pop aesthetic, Kid-B’s work is all about bold graphics, loud palettes, and no-fuss attitude. ‘I’ll Bring You Flowers XL’ is from Kid-B’s latest collection ‘The Boom Selection’, which celebrates the street sounds and urban flavours of UK Garage in the 90's and 00's. Across the print, Kid-B has written the lyrics ‘I’ll bring you flowers in the pouring rain’, from the 1999 Sweet Female Attitude song ‘Flowers’. The spray-can lettering is encircled with a neon heart and shot through with a graffiti'd arrow, brilliantly recapturing 90s iconography with a twist of contemporary cool."

"Shadow Flowers Gold By Rob Wass and Lara Hailey" |
"Rob Wass is a contemporary artist whose work details the majesty of the natural world. His prints centre around landscapes, flora and fauna, birds and butterflies, balancing exceptional colour palettes with soft texture and composition. ‘Shadow Flowers Gold’ depicts a ghostly posy of pressed flowers, their stalks and petals in shadowy black like a photographic negative. Onto the silhouette, Wass has hand-applied flashes of shimmering gold to create sumptuous tonality. Bold and beautiful, ‘Shadow Flowers Gold’ reimagines the natural world onto the canvas with bewitching style. Each flower is made of fabric organza petals which can be manipulated as desired, transforming this piece beyond a print and into a sculpture. Each petal has been lovingly hand stiched into the paper by Lara Hailey."

"Cocktail Girls - Pink By Paul Jeffrey" |
"Contemporary artist and designer Paul Jeffrey creates limited edition prints with an offbeat appeal. Suffused with humour and high visual impact, Jeffrey’s work crosses the line from graphic design to fine art: these are pieces that demand to be looked at, with their bold colour palettes, striking compositions, and satirical subject matter. ’Cocktail Girls (Large Pink)’ depicts two synchronised swimmers, their arms flexed in a showgirl ‘V’, the rest of their bodies submerged in the contents of a retro martini glass. Set against a bold, graphic background - a flat, block of pastel pink with a creamy-coloured triangle at its centre, down facing for an abstract counterpoint to the main attraction - the greyscale image is brought to life in this effortless harmony of colour, composition, and character."

"Red Tit 3 By Jane Burrows" |
"Jane Burrows is a contemporary painter and print maker, living and working in Brighton. Her work is built around observational drawing, creating monotypes from small-scale graphite sketches. Life drawing is central to Burrows’s work, having herself been both muse and master in the life drawing studio and two recent series’ - ‘Body Parts’ and ‘Tops and Bottoms’ - revolve around the fragmented nude. By playing with perspective, her work merges the abstract with the figurative, placing gender at its core to quietly question cultural expectations of the female form. ‘Red Tit 3’ recalls Russian Constructvisim, with its angular shapes and lines, monochrome palette, and flash of bright red. Yet, closer inspection reveals not an abstract depiction but a female figure, seated and hunched, a single nipple just visible, which Burrows has picked out in red. Visually powerful and conceptually acute, ‘Red Tit 3’ is a gem of contemporary print making."

"Long Distance Love - A3 By Lucy Bryant" |
"Lucy Bryant is a contemporary artist and graphic designer, whose work is influenced by Pop art and the Punk music scene. Her art subverts the everyday and the banal, always striving to disrupt the ordinary and create something entirely new. With a novel take on ‘found art’, her work appropriates antiquated artworks, turning away from the masters towards those unloved and unknown junk shop treasures. Onto these, Bryant has added anachronistic motifs to create an anarchically witty aesthetic. ‘Long Distance Love’ depicts a neo-classical lady as she sits at her toilette, unbuttoning her blouse before a carefully positioned iPhone. Well, what is one to do when one’s husband is a spice trader? A fifth boob selfie of the day should keep the wayward Mr Bennett’s eyes from roaming too far afield… From the Artist What could you do when your husband was a spice trader and as a consequence, was always away travelling for work? Thank heavens for the iPhone, thought Mrs Bennett, as she sent her fifth boob selfie of the day. It might stop Mr Bennett's wandering eye yet..."

"Piss Off Please By Newton Blades" |
"Newton Blades is a contemporary artist, known for his ‘borrowed’ and ‘reimagined’ artworks. A graduate of the Royal College of Art, Blades’ aesthetic is wide and varied, encompassing the old and the new through innovative interactions with found art. ‘Piss Off Please’ depicts a perimeter of green pine trees, simply illustrated in 1950s design. Set into the centre of the conifers, Blades has laid out the titular words, as if composed from chopped logs, to create effortless juxtaposition between the charming visual and the not-so-saccharine sentiment."

"Dark Knight - Red By Trafford Parsons" |
"Trafford Parsons’ extraordinary and long-spanning career has made its mark on the art world. Avowedly anti-establishment, Parsons work mines popular culture, from B movies to B sides, and brings an energetic street-art aesthetic to the familiar icons that haunt his work. Fusing the figurative with the abstract, ‘Dark Knight - Red’ depicts the cowled face of Batman in profile, composed in shades of black and cherry-red and set against a swirling, deco pattern. Jarring the two aesthetics - the brooding superhero with the floral decoration - Trafford creates a beautifully off-beat print, confounding our expectations of the comic book character with strong visual acuity."

"Only Forever By The Thomas Brothers" |
"Sibling art collective, The Thomas Brothers, draw on childhood nostalgia to create their off-beat, limited edition prints. Inspired by 80s cartoons, comic books, and Japanese toys, their artworks are unapologetically bold and brash with their in-your-face explosions of colour and graphic, worked to inimitable success. ’Only Forever’ depicts a woman’s face, chaotically overlaid with fragments of text and pattern, colour and graphics, which spill beyond the confines of the central disc. Recalling comic book aesthetics, the print is haunted by the work of Roy Lichtenstein, but suffused with its own, unique character, through its raw energy and tangle of vibrant influences."

"Till Death By Cassandra Yap" |
"Contemporary artist Cassandra Yap merges beauty and sensuality in her breathtaking prints like no other. Using photomontage techniques, Yap explores femininity and sexuality, using images of vintage pin-up girls merged with gentle flora and fauna, delicate butterfly wings and exquisite colour palettes. Yet her work is unsettled with dark undertones: images of death and decay pervade her prints, bringing a rich, contemplative mood to her aesthetic prowess. ‘Till Death’ depicts two skulls, their spines entwined to create the shape of a heart as their jaws lock in an immortal kiss. Setting the sepia skulls against a cream-coloured background, Yap creates a sense of quiet tenderness in this beautiful evocation of traditional marriage vows."

"Ottoline II By David Wightman" |
"David Wightman possesses an exceptional ability to transform nature into art. But forget realism and holding a mirror to reality: Wightman’s work is all about revelling in the limitless possibilities of artifice, the beauty of mixing colour and playing with composition, to transplant the natural world onto the canvas in the name of art for its own sake. ’Ottoline II’ depicts a layered landscape of mountains, sky, land, and river, stretching back like a 2-dimensional diorama. Wightman works with a hyper-saturated palette of cherry red against slate, dove-grey against deep-charcoal, and ice white against midnight, for bold, visual prowess. There is a digital simplicity to the image - clean lines, flat colouration, staggered composition - that makes the artwork emphatically contemporary: welcome to landscape painting for the twenty-first century."

"Gina Soden is a contemporary artist and photographer, whose work documents a reverie of architectural decay. Using the medium of the camera, Soden chart’s the slow and entropic passage of time, favouring a lyrical composition that breathes life back into the haunted spaces that time forgot. ’Ivy’ depicts a colonnaded walkway, as large, squared pillars create delicate vaulting, leading up to the door of a stately abode. Long since abandoned, the structure is overgrown with wreaths of ivy, clinging to both forest floor and house alike. Though empty, Soden breathes life into the space, igniting it with the trace of now-absent figures. Profoundly beautiful, Soden’s haunting print speaks to our very human fascination with time, its passing, and all things ephemeral."

Wreathed in mist, the deserted car is ignited, as Soden draws our attention to the trace of now-absent figures: young lovers, perhaps, parked-up in the undergrowth, or a traveller, lost and searching for her destination. Profoundly beautiful, Soden’s haunting print speaks to our very human fascination with time, its passing, and all things ephemeral."

White, Grecian columns support the elegant mezzanine, while a pool of light seeps in from a domed skylight, illuminating time’s ravishment, as peeling paint crumbles from the walls and layers of dirt and dust build in the once-lavish interior. Though empty, Soden breathes life into the space, igniting it with the trace of now-absent figures. Profoundly beautiful, Soden’s haunting print speaks to our very human fascination with time, its passing, and all things ephemeral."

Set against a bold, graphic background - a flat, block of pastel pink with a creamy disc at its centre - the greyscale image is brought to life in this effortless harmony of colour, composition, and character."

"For Lovers - Rose Gold By Elizabeth Waggett" |
"Elizabeth Waggett is a British fine artist, whose ‘free-spirited’ work portrays animals, skulls, and personal trinkets to explore the relationship between value and purpose in consumer driven society. Each of her pieces stages a visual dichotomy between stripped-back monochrome and shimmering, gold leaf. Posing as photographic images, each piece reveals itself, on closer look, to be highly skilled, fine art works, crafted with traditional techniques but finished with a modern twist to confront contemporary culture and challenge the viewer’s assumptions. ‘For Lovers’ depicts a pair of lobsters, each rendered in Waggett’s characteristically detailed design. Around their pincers, Waggett has added bands of glistening gold leaf, to represent the Western obsession with these intelligent creatures as expensive delicacies, barbarously boiled alive for feasting. Beautifully executed, ‘For Lovers’ urges us to take responsibility for mining the earth’s precious assets, and remember the value - not the price - of the natural wonders all around us."

For ‘Legend of the Werewolf’, Parsons has lifted the poster artwork from the 1975 horror flick of the same name. Brilliantly iconic, the image depicts a werewolf’s face, erupting in shades of white, red and green against an inky black background, while, in the corner, a corpse swings from a noose. Keenly capturing the aesthetic of the 1970s horror genre, ‘Legend of the Werewolf’ is a powerful piece of contemporary printmaking."
