Gorm – Tape drawings
Sunday, August 30th, 2009Taking a totally different slant on street art is uk based artist Gorm, his pieces have included piles of ice, the use of snails, and more frequently sugar cement and tape drawings. Each in themselves are peculiar yet have a unique charm to them, down to the way that they have been executed by Gorm.
My personal favourites of his studies being the tape drawings, this is due to the carefully considered placement of the designs on the pavement aswell as on rock face to create an image that is as equally confusing as they are charming.
Check out some of the photos below, and give his flickr a visit.

CMOAC Interview
Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009When Essex based Matt Gowler ain’t trolling the Internet, producing minimal electro or time travelling, he is designing and producing his art work. Matt has his style down to a tee, retaining the basic sketch elements in many of his characters and design, emphasising the character. I have turned to Matt in the past, seeking advice on all aspects of design, and i feel its time that he got some coverage.
Check the interview out below.
