New work features in ‘Act Art 8′ in London

// July 8th, 2010 // No Comments » // Art // Art

Eeeeeeee I’m dead excited! I was very kindly asked by Artist Susan Mortimer to submit some work for her Censored zine which is featuring in this years Act Art exhibition.

Act Art is a one night only event which gathers the subversive, provocative, underground art world together for an art extravaganza. Time Out has this to say about it…

“Over its seven previous incarnations, Marc Massive and Oliver Frost’s ACT ART has established itself as one of London’s most rich and stimulating live-art bashes, offering a remarkable range of formal and thematic work from a broad range of the cream of the art, fashion and club scenes.”

This years theme is censorship and the zine by Susan Mortimer follows the same theme. I know Susan through Empty Shop and have featured in one of her Mail Art zines before.  She puts in a tremendous about of work collating these beautiful booklets which come in limited runs; this is my piece…

A green and pink goat!?

Yup, that’s right - it’s everyone’s favourite animal in everyone’s favourite colours… or… my current favourite animal in my current favourite colours (well it is my blog)

You may have seen me promote this on Facebook as a Threadless design, if so then look at it again and if not, then look at it!

Check the viseo in the side bar people - I saw this advert over at Swiss-Miss, beutifully shot and a great example of advertising. Watch it full screen to get the full effect.

The best thing about going through old sketch pads is finding a portrait of yourself in a weird style with bong eyes and a toothless man with a fish…

Examples of beautiful pet photography

// March 16th, 2010 // 2 Comments » // Photography // Photography

Ok so the photos here are all mine and hence this all seems a bit vain (especially with the title) but I really like these photos and I’m hoping the title gets me some extra views - so, apologies for ‘bigging’ myself up but someone’s gotta do it.

At least I didn’t say I’m available for hire… DAMMIT!

Please feel free to re-post these but leave credit in place and link back to this blog. It would also be nice if you let me know so I can check it out - thanks!

The best thing I have seen all week…

New Sketch…

Sketched this out yesterday. I’ve been doodling this idea in various form for about about a year now but I’m quite happy with this. Just need to make a decision on the fringe and then find a wall…

METEORS!!! …well, kind of

// March 11th, 2010 // 2 Comments » // Photography // Photography

Took this photo when we went meteor spotting a few months back. No meteors photographed I’m afraid but instead you get this, which looks like a 6th form production of WALL.E - lucky you.
