Last year i was lucky to bump into Roam Couch in Tokyo at Kawamatsu Gallery. During an afternoon talking shop and drinking highballs the idea came up that we could work on a collaborative piece combining the styles and themes we liked working with. I’ts taken some time working across timescales, language and techniques, which really come in to focus when you work by DHL.
We decided on two versions to be painted in each others cities. Yep a lot of back and forth, our couriers faces lit up.
Twinning Penge, London with Nagoya, Japan.
We are thinking of releasing this as a small edition Giclee print when we work out the logistics , couriers and the inevitable postage back and forth to get the thing together, so stay tuned for details. The basic idea being that we will do a simultaneous release of each print edition in Japan and the UK, with each artist posting them locally.
