MISHFIT
Bending context and distorting truths since she was old enough to hold a pencil, MISHFITs' imaginary friends now exist in many forms, residing in dark corners and bright spaces.
Her street art and gallery based work is scattered across the globe from Tokyo to Brighton and whether its erotic, subversive, or cute, MISHFIT's work is always striking, commanding the eye and the imagination. Enjoy!

SNUB
SNUB is a graphic revolution fighting the uninvited visual invasion of commercialism. Inspiration is fired by frustration; emotion becomes a plan of attack. Anger is the weapon, and any object the ammo in the fight against the optical overload.
High impact graphics are used to make a statement on anything from backdrops for parties to album covers, clothes, toys, and then back out onto the streets. Experimenting with new techniques to produce diverse works using stickers, paste-ups, stencils and freehand spray paints.
Coming into being in the 1990s, SNUB is the alter ego of a graphic designer, inspired by fictional robot Hammerstein.
Collective and as a solo artist, SNUB has exhibited and painted at events across Europe, growing a glowing reputation with every new piece.
As part of the Grafik Warfare SNUB is prolific and unstoppable, and ultimately synonymous with a future technology gone bad.

Tom Hines
From early years Hines was scorned for 'wasting his talents' with graffiti and comic art. Disillusioned with the art world after studying graphic design at Falmouth, Hines moved to Brighton and pursued his other love: music.
Tom always kept his hand in drawing, however, and has done hundreds of caricatures for the SlipJam night he is involved in.

I BE I AM
I BE I AM is a moniker that encompasses Shana Layzell's multi-talented creative life.
Encompassing art, music, spoken word and motherhood she weaves her inspiration into fantastical
faces and figures of beauty and strength.
She is inspired by the female form, her father's sci-fi and fantasy art, Mucha, graffitti, fashion illustration/photography, hip hop and sound system culture, (she also sings and is a veteran of the Brighton hip hop scene), indigenous and tribal people and cultures.
Throw in a bit of goddess worship and you have the ideology.
I BE I AM is new to the live art scene and is planning to fully embrace it to enter a new level of art and soul for the people.
