Wonderclub

“This piece was painted as part of my Wonder Club series that was inspired by comic books which was, for me, the golden era of psychedelic history. These images and words captured the essence of a time before me. Being inspired by a small movements like Zap Comix and Futuropolis I took note of their values as well as using their visual references.

To create this piece I use materials such as spray paint, acrylic and enamel to jump from loose to tight mark making. To start I use a super fine canvas and the pieces usually start with hammerite and thinners thrown chaotically at the canvas using a super nice brush. I think this abstract expressionist approach to the start of a canvas breaks the silence of a white surface. From there I define the shapes and start to create a narrative." - Sickboy
