INFO
Electric Blue Gallery welcomes in May with a solo show entitled Cocoon from London based illustrator and artist Von.

With Cocoon comes a small oasis in London's busy East End where you are invited to find refuge, sit on the grass and surround yourself with Summer, zebras and birds - executed, as always, with Von's own inimitable abstraction. Cocoon is the next development in the artist's ongoing Animal Series of drawings which has previously been published as part of Creative Review's award winning Monograph series, travelled on billboards from London to New York in the Migration exhibition, adopted by Liberty of London for their relaunch and appeared on the catwalk at Milan Fashion Week as part of the Trussardi A/W 09 collection.

Whilst on the surface this ongoing collection of drawings is a simple exploration of beauty found in the animal kingdom it is also an indepth examination in image construction, form and the process of drawing itself.

EMILY FORGOT AT SELFRIDGES

-
The wonderful Emily Forgot was commissioned to produce a four window installation for the prestigious Selfridges. The result, suitably named "Zoot Allure," has been a huge success and is, along with her Creative Review front cover in March, a clear indication that we will be seeing a lot more from this designer and illustrator in the future and deservedly so.
-
You can see the installation for yourself on the Orchard Street side of the Oxford Street Selfridges until the end of April.
