Tiger Gallery - Mr.StarCity “I love me some life” 249-251 Regent St, London, W1B 2EP (Oct 12 - Nov 26, 2022) “Hats are our everyday crowns, and flowers represent the ecosystem of life. In our death, we become topsoil, and that topsoil brings forth new life” (Mr.StarCity) 💜 There is a gallery in the basement of a London-based Japanese sneaker store. It supports international creativity and craftsmanship and is part of the fashion brand Onitsuka Tiger @onitsukatigeruk Mr.StarCity @mrstarcity currently has 8 paintings on display - each one colourful and poetic. Using a mixture of acrylic, soil and charcoal, David “Mr.StarCity” White introduces a new series of paintings titled BLOOMS representing hats blossoming out of plant stems. The works accompany his ongoing portraiture series of figures wearing hats. I loved the layout of this exhibition and exploration of themes of hope and faith in the human condition. Each canvas communicates the possibility of growth and healing. After the exhibition you can treat yourself to a pair of tiger stripe sneakers.
