Sickboy Shows Off Fruits of Labor

UK street artist Sickboy unveiled his interconnectable “Logopop” prints at an eponymous exhibition on Wednesday. Between 8 and 16 inches wide and limited to editions of three, these bold prints were intended for framing alone or in a grid-like format according to the space and budget of buyers. Lasting all of three hours, the short show also saw some more complex spray paint and gold leaf piece, such as these Adam, Eve and apple portraits.

Sickboy Announces Super Short Solo Show

Next week, UK street artist Sickboy opens a solo exhibition of new paintings, installations and “Logopops,” a series of new work for which the show is named. Described as a “visual bullet to the mind,” Logopops are sold in various interconnecting sizes that allow collectors “to create their own bespoke compositions” of Sickboy art. Unlike last year’s Willy Wonka-style exhibition and giveaway, this RSVP-required London show last just a few hours. As the artist says, “Blink and you’ll miss it.”

“Logopop,” 7 – 11 PM on December 16, The Rag Factory, 16-18 Heneage Street, London
