Part2ism at work in Ladbroke Grove, West London

As much as people class me as a fine artist, I can never really escape the roots of the letter. The whole wildstyle culture is what’s taught me to shape-shift and understand the importance of how art works best when you embrace the public domain and the world at large. Part2ism

Flicking through these pages its difficult to accept these works are the product of a single mind. Divergent thought and action has been the cornerstone of Keith’s work since day one - not as any sort of thought out strategy, more that rare gift of a creative mind that is affected by the world around it and has the talent and clarity to react.
