Static

BIOG:

STATIC is the creative output of two individuals who have been working as one since 2006.

Having met at art college they began to share ideas and inspirations and, having completed BA degrees in Edinburgh and Liverpool, they have been working together from their own studio for the past 5 years. Initially returning to the North East of England to set-up their first studio, STATIC are now based in East London, where they continue to produce original work and screen printed editions in house and by hand. Their work combines elements of street art and fine art, merging a clean graphic style with stencils, spray paint, screen-printing and paint brushes, to create unique pieces which have been exhibited on the streets of London as well as a number of international gallery spaces.

STATIC established their studio in 2006 and have been printing, painting and pasting all their work in-house to maintain a consistency of output and directly influence the decision making processes that go into each idea, original artwork and edition they produce.

2010 saw their first solo Exhibitions in the UK - ArtRepublic London - and in Japan - Gallery Kawamatsu - where they spent 2 weeks which have been documented in the 'Japan Tour' section of the website.

They are currently working towards their next London show which will open in April 2012.

welikestatic.com is the primary source for news and releases from the duo, but their work can also be found in galleries across the UK, USA, Dubai, Singapore, Japan and Australia.
