James Diable and Wayne Hill @ @ once less harmful & more pleasure-giving

Media factory 4th floor Tuesday 5pm-6pm start@ once less harmful & more pleasure-giving

Working from a Preston based studio space, James Diable and Wayne Hill are affectionately inspired and driven by the observation of and connectivity with the day to day traditional market place and the tangible Preston lives that exist within this space. Through collaboration and creative liaison they negotiate and blend the mediums of paint, creative writing, mechanical art and drawing. UCLan graduates and connoisseurs of Northern mustard, '@ once less harmful and more pleasure-giving'is an amalgamation of personal study and retrospective work investigating portraiture, the application of paint and symbolic connotation. Regards James Diable

Video Tour of the justice exhibtion

fantastic exhibition based on old mugshots held in a jail, featuring prominent graffiti artists (like the amazing c215) makes a powerful statement about how we perceive convicts, and how we treat them as individuals, and makes us question the justice system as a whole.

(be sure to turn on the sound in the video player)

more animated goodness this time from the clayton brothers

a wonderful short created by the famous james jarvis in collaboration with nike...
