I had the pleasure of meeting Roger a few weeks ago; A thoroughly nice bloke and unbeknown to me at the time, an exceptionally talented artist. Since receiving his MA at Chelsea College of Art in 1997, he has exhibited in various international solo and group shows, ranging from Liverpool to LA.

I’m an instant fan of his work – As a Graphic Designer who has an interest in Art, his style totally hits the spot with me! Abstract loveliness!

He will be exhibiting (along with many others) in a new show titled ‘Ha Ha What Does This Represent’ at the StandPoint Gallery in Shoreditch, which runs 1st  til 31st March. Be sure to check it out if you are in the area.

Exhibition

Group show ‘Process’

North Tea Power, Northern Quarter, Manchester

Exhibition runs 9th February – 29th March

Curated by Artist Paul Hallows and music promoter Wotgodforgot ‘Process’ is a group show featuring six different Manchester based poster artists. The show is held in Manchester’s best coffee and tea house ‘North Tea Power’.

Each artist has been asked to create a poster to celebrate the upcoming Wotgodforgot show featuring the seminal Seattle noise act ‘Earth’. We hope that featuring some of our own work in our first blog isn’t viewed as narcissistic but we think the show looks fantastic so if you live in Manchester or will soon be visiting we suggest you go and enjoy one of the many fantastic beverages at NTP and peruse this collection of differing poster styles.

Exhibitors include: Kelly Dyson, Paul Hallows, Dave Bailey, SAVWO, Steve Hockett and ourselves here at DR.ME
