SCREAMS AND SCREENS:
The artists curated by Panache -- Bert Bergen, Alexander Campaz, Brian
Chippendale, Rob Corradetti, Nat Damm, Sohale Darouian aka 333, El
Jefe Design, E*Rock, Jesjit Gill, Gunsho, Kayrock and Wolfy, Jason
Killinger, Planaria Designs, Seripop, Urban Inks and Zeloot approach
the print from an individual perspective, bringing to the work a
unique “eye burner” aesthetic (a phrase used by Urban Inks, one of the
design groups in the exhibition), as heard by the curator. According
to Panache, “the vibrant colors and bold contrasts compounded with
multiple layers of patterns and screens, adds a discombobulating
visual effect on the viewer. Each poster ‘pops’ or ‘screams’ out at
you, and is unique from the next print because each one is
individually produced through its own screening process. This creates
a freedom in the work that lends the artist a medium that has no
boundaries, limitations or defined lines. Hopefully making you stop
and think or at least take a second glance at what's in front of you
and the world around you."
