Seymours Troll House.

A few months back I posted some pics of a house I have been making for the Köln Artfair 21. After a blurry 3 months I am finally done and have just come back from Köln exhausted but really happy with how it all turned out.
Artfair 21 is one of the biggest art fairs in Europe so it was an honor to be asked to show my work there. The reception was great and I made some really good hookups and contacts.
So below are some pics of the house. It stands about 150cm and is made from a mix of woods, polymers clays, plastics, resins and paint.
If you are in Berlin in February you will get the chance to see it on display in a show at the Strychnin Gallery. If you have any enquiries feel free to get in touch.

Seymour Dolls house

Hi all.

A few weeks back I said I would post some pics of the house I am building for the Cologne Artfair 21 in October. It's been a mammoth project so far and has taken far longer than I thought it would...as usual. I have designed and constructed each part individually and put it all together like a big puzzle. All the detailing is hand cut and carved and is constructed from mostly wood and plastics as well as thick card for the tiling etc. So far it stands about 140cm tall. The outside still needs its lights and a paint job and then I can start the inside which will be 9 different rooms. Not your classic dolls house rooms!
More pics to come in a few weeks,
Cheers Seymour

New Print!

Earlier in the year I created an ink drawing for the Strychnin Gallery titled '7 Year Glitch'. It was for a group show called '7 year itch' which was celebrating Strychnins 7th birthday.
I really liked this piece and was always interested to see what it would be like in colour. So I have released it as a limited edition Giclee print. It is a small edition of only 30 and is printed onto Hahnemühle 290gsm archival Bamboo paper. The Bamboo paper is a very smooth matt stock with a nice cream tone to it.
The size of the print is 21 x 35 cm and comes with the hand debossed Seymour stamp and a certificate of authenticity. It is available now through the Red Door Galley and Eyeball Kicks Gallery.

'Halfway Home' group show

The Red Door Gallery has teamed up with the Scottish model making duo 'Finch and Fourarce' to present a new group show titled 'Halfway home'. The artists were all sent one of the 'Finch and Fourarce' tenement kit-sets to construct and customise. This was a really fun project and as you can see I got slightly carried away with my one. The tenements measure around 18 cm high and my one has a built in light and acts as a little lamp;)
The show begins on Friday at The Red Door Gallery and will run through the month with all the tenaments at a super cheap price ranging from £35-£75.

NEW PRINTS!!

Hi everyone.
Sorry for the lack of updates lately, been a busy few months but back on track now.
I have two new limited edition prints available as of NOW! Details are listed under the pics.

'Eyeball kicks'
Edition of 30 (Size: 26 x 40cm)
Giclee print onto archival German Etching art paper.
Contact: 'Eyeball kicks Gallery' email: monster@eyeballkicks.com

This is a new limited edition print specially for 'Eyeball kicks Gallery' on Cuba street in Wellington NZ. If you have been down Cuba street before you will have seen the famous bucket fountains. They are a Wellington icon and really sum up the colourful feel of the street and area. So this print is my take of them! This print is only available through 'Eyeball Kicks Gallery' but they will ship world world on request.

'Oh Wien'
Edition of 30 (Size: 17.5 x 19.5)
Giclee print onto archival Bamboo art paper.

Hi all, I have two new pieces which will be in the Xmas-Luau show at Strychnin gallery in Berlin. The opening is on the 11th Dec from 7-11pm. I had a peek at a few of the pieces as I was dropping mine in and it's sure to be an amazing show. Some details below.

"Berlin is dark, cold and grey during winter, but this show promises to bring the tropics to the heart of Friedrichshain with an all-star lineup of international Tiki artists! Celebrated Tiki artists such as Shag, KRK Ryden, Heather Watts, Thorsten Hasenkamm and Moritz R. join Strychnin regulars Mimi S, Seymour, Wee Flowers, Elmer Presslee and many more will be showing brand new artwork – paintings, photographs, prints, sculptures and customised ukuleles.

In order to keep the party going, Strychnin Gallery has teamed up with Roadrunne
r’s Paradise in Prenzlauer Berg and will be holding the after party there. The club will be open from 10pm, and features live music from The Montesas."
