"The power of art is that it can connect us to one another, and to larger truths about what it means to be alive and what it means to be human." ~ Daniel Levitin
EXTRACT: Part historical reflection, part social experiment, JR's "La Nascita" turns Milan’s Stazione Centrale railway station — the city’s busiest transport hub and a notorious hotspot for petty crime — into a place of chance encounters.
“In spaces that have social issues, my work is about bringing people together. In a place like this, a huge range of people come to catch the train. When they find themselves in front of an exhibition, they will suddenly have a different kind of interaction.
"While the exhibition is temporary, even when it's gone visitors will never see [the station] in the same way. Changing perspectives on things is always a way of looking at the world differently, and that’s what I always aim to do, no matter the circumstances.” ~ JR

"'Cause you're a sky, 'cause you're a sky full of stars, I wanna die in your arms, 'Cause you get lighter the more it gets dark, I'm gonna give you my heart." ~ A Sky Full of Stars, Coldplay, 2014
"Fix The Sky - Orange (Original)" by SNIK, 2018
Arty-Fact: "I think stencil work is a form of OCD. To sit for hours on end, cutting small pieces of card from bigger pieces of card, it’s not a standard method of art, but a more precise and exact craft. The way we try to balance this, is by painting very quickly, and very rough and ready. Every canvas we paint is painted the same way it would be done on the street, drips, smudges, mess and mistakes are all a part of it. The tightness of the stencil is only a balance to the freedom of the painting.” ~ SNIK

Tim: What do you call a blind dinosaur? Dr. Alan Grant: I don't know. What do you call a blind dinosaur? Tim: A Do-you-think-he-saurus. Dr. Alan Grant: Ha ha. Good one. Tim: What do you call a blind dinosaur's dog? Dr. Alan Grant: You got me. Tim: A Do-you-think-he-saurus Rex. ~ Jurassic Park, 1993
"Tapex Rex (Special Edition)" by The Space Cowboy, 2023
Arty-Fact: "Tapex Rex is a colorful explosion that merges a crowned T-Rex with the boldness of street art. With bright graffiti strokes and a childlike touch, it's a playful take on a mighty dinosaur. This piece is a fun invitation to explore imagination and see a prehistoric king in a whole new light." ~ The Space Cowboy
"Tapex Rex" has a secret… Concealed within the artwork lies a secret augmented reality animation made by the artist. A treasure of mystery that patiently awaits discovery, to be unveiled only when “Tapex Rex" steps into its everlasting home.
Are you ready?

"Soul meets soul on lovers' lips.” ~ Percy Bysshe Shelley
"Heart Lips" by Jamie Nelson, 2015
Series: Love
Arty-Fact: “Where there is love there is life” ~ Mahatma Gandhi
In this series, Jamie uses her unique storytelling ability to explore the complex universal theme of love. She defines the collection with the symbology of colour by incorporating feminine hues of reds and pinks. Additionally, she uses graphic in-your-face iconography to speak bluntly on the subject. Known for her less than subtle, over-the-top approach, Jamie’s images of love do not disappoint.
Whether speaking to romantic, platonic, or self-love, Jamie portrays this multi-faceted concept in her signature tongue-in-cheek style. She delights the viewer with dramatic makeup and exaggerated styling that illustrate the various manifestations of love.
Jamie uses the face as her canvas by plastering the model in graphic heart stickers and playful kiss marks. In another image, she uses lighting to paint the picture of love with a heart light shining onto the model. Jamie also explored the complexity of love during COVID. She created an intimate portrait of two women kissing whilst wearing glamorous protective masks. Another image presents the fallible, darker side of love - heartbreak - as depicted by a hand holding a broken heart-shaped mirror.
Jamie celebrates the depth and meaning of love and the empowerment of the female gaze. In this series, she uses lighting, composition, and colour to inspire the viewer to examine their relationship with love. Whether love is lost, love is found, or love is blind - it is a universal subject that resonates with all because “where there is love, there is life.”

"If art is to nourish the roots of our culture, society must set the artist free to follow his vision wherever it takes him. We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth." ~ President John F. Kennedy: Remarks at Amherst College, October 26, 1963
Amid threats to freedom, career moves and censorship become hard to tell apart.
