We do love it when artists visit our shores from afar, and even more so when its an artist like Mr Penfold – someone whose work has both levity, humour and tight linework that really gets us inspired.

Abstract art meets comicbook bliss, graffiti meets illustration, Mr Penfolds work is grand as.

“Penfold has made his way out to our sunny shores to open his latest exhibition titled ‘Bric ‘A’ Brac’ at The Tate Gallery in Glebe, Sydney on Wednesday 19th of December.

‘Bric ‘a’ Brac’ will be showcasing a collection of new paintings, sculpture and the release of a limited edition screen print by the UK based artist. This body of work sees Penfold delve into his roots of abstract art and graffiti, combining and dissecting his characters to create abstract forms.

During his stay in Australia, Penfold will be painting a variety of walls in the lead up to his show. Stay tuned to the Opening Hours website and their instagram (@theopeninghours) for all of the updates and locations.”
