Brick Lane's Art in Mind Presents up and coming artist Y-NOT. In East London Street artists such as Sick Boy, Sweet Tooth and Eines paint directly onto shop shutters, flooding the area with unique, edgy and tongue-in-cheek works that has become a definitive characteristic of the area. These pictures are spread via the web and soon draw large crowds to come and see the work before they get tagged over or destroyed. Many of these artists have transformed Brick Lane into the centre of the street art scene in London.
Y-NOT comments on this trend by merging personal influences from his fashion background with the concept of The Shutter, using the new Rave Shutter Sunglasses that is strewn across this area. This body of work is inspired by the forever changing characteristics of Brick Lane, which is famous for its vintage fashion boutiques, underground art scene and galleries, Bangladeshi cafes, music bars and dynamic social centres, creating a colourful cocktail of art and culture. The dynamic and ever-changing environment has always attracted creative people and street artists. (less info)
