Made 40 small works for Taking Liberty’s pop up shop at the Treatment rooms in Acton on the 3rd of december. They are 22cm by 28cm spray paint on aluminum sheet and all come with a C.O.A. and will be on sale for a depression busting £40, all the works are unique and signed. I will also be producing an special edition of the Mao ZeDollar in a striking colourway that will be exclusive to the show edition of 10. You can check out the £40 works that will be featured in the show here.
