SMOKE SIGNALS
Prolific multi-disciplinary artist Askew One's new exhibition is worth a look...
Askew One is a multi-disciplinary artist mostly renowned for his graffiti art paintings. Widely regarded as one of the New Zealand graffiti scene’s driving forces he has managed to remain at the forefront of the movement whilst working tirelessly behind the scenes in a diverse array of projects.
Although working primarily in aerosol paint, Askew is versed in graphic design, illustration, photography, publishing, music and moving image. He also collated and co-authored a book about New Zealand graffiti, ‘In-Form’ which was a Montana Book Awards finalist in 2008.
'Smoke Signals' is the first solo exhibition of paintings by the Auckland-based artist Ain 5 years. The exhibition marks a coming of age and realization of a series that encompasses nearly two decades of creative development.
