Fugitives is a group show that brings together seven artists from diverse backgrounds whose work fuses the formal protocols of graphic design, comics and illustration with the more traditional media of painting and collage.

One is just as likely to encounter their work on the street, on an album cover, or on a t-shirt as in a gallery, in a magazine, or on the web. Bound together by their ability to move fluidly between personal and commercial work and material and digital realms, they are best described as “fugitives.” A series of limited edition t-shirts and a sticker packs accompany the show, available for sale at the gallery and online.
