Numskull – Mixed Messages

Mixed Messages
An exhibition of recent works by Australian artist, Numskull

numskull_flyer

In his latest exhibition, Numskull offers art lovers a range of concepts and styles, including wooden font collage artworks, sculpture and installation pieces and the signature character paintings that Numskull has become recognised for, both locally and internationally.

His latest artworks draw from his obsessive passion for typography and the visual data that saturates our city streets, via disruptive advertising, attention seeking information and colour.

Numskull takes emotion and meaning from this broad pool of mixed messages and filters it down into collaged images that are bold, curious and colourful.

Using a range of items, such as found materials, custom built wooden pieces and paint on canvas, this body of work is a step forward, which captures audacious ideas that will delight and confuse the viewer.

A for Awesome – Paul Thurlby’s Alphabet – Templar/Candlewick 2011

Originally from Nottingham, Paul is now based in London, he has been a full-time illustrator since September 2006 after graduating from University in Buckinghamshire, England. “I hold my pen in a funny way but it works just fine for me,” says Paul “I’ve built up an impressive list of commissions working in editorial, advertising, publishing and T-shirt design for clients including The Guardian, It’s Nice That, Warner/Chappell, Milou-Dufay, The Times, Orange UK and Dentsu London”.

The inspiration for his work comes from mid-century design and illustration,
“my style has been described as being retro-modern. I use old books, postcards and pieces of paper for the backgrounds to my illustrations which often,
for example, involves buying an old book from a charity shop just to use it’s back cover!”
