For those in Sydney, this Friday night is the opening of Meggs ‘Sons of Privilege’ show at the brand new Lo-Fi Collective art space in Surry Hills.
“Initially recognised for his multi-layer street stencils and posters, Meggs has become a well recognised and respected member of Australia’s street art culture. With a background of graffiti, skateboarding and graphic design Meggs has developed his painting skills from street to galleries with a mixture of aerosol based character work and stencil based expressive canvases. Being a member of the renowned ‘Everfresh’ studio, a unique collective/studio space in Melbourne, has helped Meggs to develop skills in aerosol painting and screen printing and participate in numerous large scale Everfresh mural works.”
Graffiti / Street & Events | Where: Sydney, NSW
“Meggs has spread his street and gallery work as far as London, NYC, LA, SF, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Paris and he has contributed to various projects with the Rebel Club in Singapore, Stussy Australia and numerous Gallery exhibitions around the world, as well as having artworks included in the permanent collections of the National Gallery of Australia and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. A continued passion for graffiti, pop-art and abstract expressionism places Meggs as one of Australia’s pioneering street to gallery artists.”
The show will be running for only one week and features new original works and a large wall installation piece, so make sure you come on down and check it out this Friday night!
