Oh, I wish I had of seen this one a bit earlier, so I could see if I could get hold of the artists involved (whom, admittedly, I’m not all that familiar with) – because, and lets be honest here,  I have a major art crush on anything to do with comics, and an even bigger one when it comes to girls!

“China Heights is excited to present ‘Nice Piece of Art’, a collaborative exhibition between PT and Jessi Cat, featuring works which are heavily influenced by pop-art, cartoons, comics, the traditions of graffiti and the female form.

Sharing a common belief that every artist or graffiti writer has their own style akin to their own personality, and the ability to remain literal rather than conceptual, PT and Jessi Cat have created a bold series of works using predominantly spray paint and acrylic paint on canvas, and pencil on paper.

By combining traditional graffiti art and cartoon illustration, and admiration of artists such as John Kricfalusi, Shane Gline, Coop and Ralph Bakshi, the pair have developed a set of intrepid, lustrous pin up girls which are entirely unique, and represent each of their distinct styles as artists.

The works, relating completely to the lives of exotic dancers, attempt to capture the personality inside a woman who would, at first glance, be seen only as an object of sex. A kaleidoscopic mix of tropical and cool colours masks the dark and sinister underlying notions of what these woman are really about, and the reality of their own existence.”
