Sickboy’s newest show, “Heaven & Earth” contains an entirely new body of work and also presents four major installations which include a walk-in confessional booth (with a resident pastor), and an installation which see’s the who’s who of artists joining Sickboy, including: D*Face, Eine, Anthony Lister, Paul Insect, Vhils, Conor Harrington, Xenz, Word to Mother, Will Barras, Eelus, Mudwig and Hush – all of which feature in a special collaborative element of the show.

After years of brainwashing the public with his temple and slogans such as ‘Save the Youth’, Sickboy is expanding his ethos of ‘art for the people’ and inviting the global public to become part of his show by submitting their anonymous confessions to him, which will become one of the main installations, entitled CONFESS.

Heaven & Earth opens with a private view on Thursday 3rd November and opens to the public on Friday 4th to Sunday 6th November. Dray Walk, The Old Truman Brewery, 91 Brick Lane, London, E1 6QL.

Hush returns to Los Angeles at the New Image Art Gallery on Santa Monica Blvd with a brand new collection of his work. The idea of ‘duality’ is the primary focus of this new work and the 15 mixed-media works on canvas use the subject matter of the female form to depict the “action painting” and “pure expressionism” with the traditional elements of fine art.

Opening Reception: Saturday May 21, 2011 (7-10pm) – May 21 – June 18, 2011 NO RSVP NECESSARY

Have you ever wondered how a painting or sculpture from your favorite artist would look if it was brought to life?

Well, fans of Hush got sort of an idea when he recently collaborated with Complex on a project where they paired four artists up with models to create “four unique fusions of style and sex appeal” for their annual Style and Design package.  Nice to see he got a little diversion after hitting up LA and SF with a couple solo shows earlier on in the year.

Seen above is the finished image that the UK-based street artist and Brooklyn-based model Melody came up with.
