Crystal Is The New Wolf Exhibition

For their 18th exhibition Recoat are bringing together two artists, Will Barras and Rue Five. The pair are quite different, Barras is a 37 year-old London based designer who started out creating record sleeves and bmx graphics while Rue Five is a 23 year-old Stirling based artist whose roots lie in graffiti art, yet the work they are producing now has much in common and compliments each other well.
The pair move in similar circles, meeting up at various exhibitions over the years, but after bumping into each other again after being invited to Banksy’s Cans II Festival last year, and due to their mutual appreciation, they decided they needed to work together, hence “Crystal is the New Wolf”.
When the unlikely pair approached Recoat to curate their first exhibition together, they were delighted,
“Will and Jules are both so well known within this genre, our audience will love to see them together for the first time. They both have lovely mark making skills and the work carries layered narrative, exploring themes like nostalgia, relationships, loneliness and culture. We’re really excited about showing this interesting exhibition from such an unusual yet in-tune partnership.”
The pair are creating a series of drawings, both of their own work and collaborations and creating a large scale art piece in the space.

Show Runs: Saturday 16th May 2009 till 7th June 2009
Opening Party: Friday 15th May 2009 7pm-10pm
