| "Bomb Ballerina - 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. ‘Bomb Ballerina (Large Pink)’ depicts an elegant ballet dancer, her arms held aloft, mid-arabesque, her legs obscured by a billowing, atomic mushroom cloud which, on first appearance, looks nothing more than a frothy, Swan Lake tutu. 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."

| "Let It Reign 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. ‘Let it Reign’ depicts a greyscale photograph of the young Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by a kaleidoscopic array of pattern, type, and graphics and finished with a vintage, red coloured wash. Using skilled, digital processes, HRH is seen to be winking out towards the viewer: a cheeky countenance for a magisterial matriarch. Rich in texture and design, and dripping with wry humour, ‘WLet it Reign’ is a triumph of contemporary street-to-canvas aesthetics."

| "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."

| "Legend of the Werwolf 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. 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."

| "HardTimes #18 By Kenny Random" |
| "Kenny Random is a street artist, living and working in Padova, Italy. His work turns around the technique of trompe-l’oeil, spraying cartoon characters and silhouette figures onto walls with carefully crafted compositions to create the illusion of three dimensional reality. ‘Hard Times #18’ depicts an image of Snoopy, sleeping on the roof of his kennel. Over the iconic image, Kenny Random has added dynamic splashes of paint: an exploding pink love-heart here, ‘life is beautiful’ scrawled over there, and a series of raw, urban graffiti tags, all rough and dripping for a brilliant sense of immediacy. Fusing Pop, Pulp, and Street, ‘Hard Times #18’ gathers some of the last half century’s most important visual movements, transforming them into a powerful, contemporary aesthetic."

| "Superstitious Polkadots 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. ‘Superstitious Polka Dots’ takes a tongue-in-cheek photograph of Stevie Wonder as its starting point: head tipped back, mouth agape, Stevie is caught mid-laugh, his iconic glasses over his eyes and beaded braids falling about his face. Against a bright, sky-blue background, Jake Jeffries has composed the singer’s portrait from sections of flat, black and soft, raspberry pink, adding splashes of pink and white polka-dot pattern to his face, as though heat-sensitive. The piece is rich with allusion, as traces of Warhol and Lichtenstein saturate the image to create a visually arresting print."

| "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.” ’Scarface Sleeps (Pink)’ depicts a still from the iconic 1980s movie, as the eponymous hero sleeps in a moment of vulnerability. Using only the two tones of inky black and hot pink, the figurative image shades into the abstract, only part decipherable with its electric contrast. Brilliantly composed, the print is filled with explosive energy, in this powerful transference of street to canvas."

As if the double portraits have been snipped from the silver-shaded 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."

| "Chambre Degrade 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. ’Chambre Degrade XL’ depicts a once-decadent bedroom, its decrepit state still bearing the traces of former times: rich, mahogany panelling lines the walls, even as the ceiling exposes its wooden rafters; a marble mantlepiece is flanked by a red velvet chair, now crumbling with dust; while a sumptuous bed perches in front of an ornately painted wall, hung with floating silk curtains. Soden breathes life into inanimate objects but, more than that, she breathes life into the very space, igniting it with the trace of whoever once inhabited the ruinous bed, spending happy days in a now spectral boudoir. Profoundly beautiful, Soden’s haunting print speaks to our very human fascination with time, its passing, and all things ephemeral."

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’ 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."

| "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’ - 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."

| "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. Taking its title from the iconic, 1968 film Planet of the Apes, ‘You maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell!’ depicts the haunting image of the Statue of Liberty, sunk beneath the sand in the movie’s closing scene. In grainy black and white, the image captures the power of the original film, while suffusing the memorable motif with a contemporary twist: might we, the print seems to ask, soon find ourselves wailing the same line in this time of global chaos?"

'Star Map' depicts a mythological figures and animals each representing a constellation, delicately drawin in a moonlight silver on a midnight blue background. From the Artist: This map was inspired by antique circular celestial maps that often picked out the constellations as images. The map is annotated with stories. Science, folklore and history collide to give a grand sweeping view of the skies. Our own voices and those from the past always mix to create a broad understanding of place. I'm hoping that I'll have a better idea of the stars next time I look up on a clear night.... The original was hand drawn and lettered in white ink on blue mountboard with silver leaf gilding."

Not limited to a single process, Fowler incorporates graphics, illustration, photography and photomontage into his work, combining these different mediums with an experimental approach. His work fuses the figurative and the abstract, exploiting innovative compositional technique, sharp, defined shapes, and a pure CMYK palette, for a bold and arresting visual quality which is attuned to all things nostalgic. ’Betty 18’ depicts a greyscale, photograph of a woman, crouched against a bright orange background. Leaving her face and hair in black and white, Fowler has colourised her loud, patterned dress in bright shades of pink, yellow and blue. The result sits somewhere between collage, illustration, and photomontage, for a uniquely characterful aesthetic, replete with 1970s overtones, while distinctly contemporary."

Known for his animal series’, White captures creatures from the natural world with astonishing vividness, exploiting colour, texture and tonality to generate a unique aesthetic. ‘Baby Gorilla’ depicts a cheeky baby Gorilla, his head turned toward the viewer, as a playful smile dances across his face. Using thick, dynamic brush strokes, adding flecks and paint splatters, and allowing the pigment to course down the paper in thin, fluid lines, White builds figurative realism through layers of textured abstraction, capturing the presence and vitality of the primate with astonishing prowess."

| "Billie Holiday By Tim Fowler" |
| "The work of contemporary British artist Tim Fowler is characterised by its bold and intense use of colour. Known for his portraits of silver screen sirens, Fowler’s work at once captures his subject’s likeness and eschews figurative realism, asserting a refusal to collapse life and art in its use of thick pigment, hard lines, and clashing colour. Working with acrylic, spray paint, marker pens, oils, and graffiti inks, Fowler reimagines the past with a distinctly urban, twenty-first century aesthetic. ’Billie Holiday’ depicts the eponymous singer, her face rendered in super-real shades of raspberry pink and sky blue, each paint daub left unblended and boldly visible against a bright blue background. Yet for all of its self-consciously surreal artistry, the piece not only captures Holiday, but also recalls the high contrast, black and white that typifies 1950s photography."

Attempting to express the ineffable, Whatshisname challenges his viewer to refocus on the world around them, questioning what they see in unorthodox and unconventional ways. Often parodic, and always saturated with humour and irony, Whatshisname’s work is powerfully visual, creating instantaneous connection with every viewer. ’Splash Kiss - White’ artfully merges the abstract and the figurative for high impact. Against a white background, seemingly random splashes of black paint take centre stage, dynamically splattered onto the page for a raw, energetic composition. Like a Rorschach test, an image starts to appear from the streaks and flecks: two faces intertwine in a passionate kiss. Playing with the possibilities of illusion, Whatshisname transcends expectations of the printed form with compelling visual prowess."
