'Til the Hot Runs Cold' – Word To Mother

WORD TO MOTHER GRILLS!

On a wall in Brighton:

MF DOOM. I love this!

'Til the Hot Runs Cold' is an exhibition that has just opened in the StolenSpace Gallery that showcases work from illustrator & graffiti artist, WORD TO MOTHER. This is his second show at the Stolen Space Gallery to date which features spray paint and acryllic on wood, canvas and various bits of abandoned street furniture.

WORD TO MOTHER works closely with D*Face and his work just gets better and better. Im not just saying this because he is a good friend of mine - I admire his craft and attention to detail. His work playfully documents social situations such as tea drinking and fights between the man dem on road. The wood canvases that he paints on are usually sourced from his birthplace in Hastings, England. Understanding that the found objects have a past life, WORD TO MOTHER then re-uses the findings in another way to give them another use - whilst still managing to retain their raw texture and colour. He cites J. Dilla, Dog the Bounty Hunter and his sister as his main influences.
