People are Strange (and other forms)

Date: Tuesday, Aug 8 2017 - Sunday, Oct 15 2017
Venue: Here Gallery
Artists
Mark Wheatley, Marko

Posters, screen prints and zines by artist Mark Wheatley a.k.a. Marko, based on an ongoing exploration of form, colour and composition.

Marko’s work pays reference to modernist abstraction, fused with a contemporary graphic sensibility.

“Each image evolves organically through a combination of intuition and improvisation. When screen printing I use hand cut paper stencils. This allows for a spontaneous working approach, with a quick build up of flat, even colour, and provides opportunities to explore bold graphic shapes and forms in playfully constructed compositions. I am intrigued how the shapes interact with each other creating their own unique relationships.”
