“NO SLEEP TILL BUSHWICK” Thursday, June 14 6-10pm

Featuring artwork and installations from New York’s finest street legends…

BAST, AIKO (of Faile) and SKEWVILLE along with special guest
Chris Mendoza from the Barnstormers

Individually these artists are known all over the world for their
contributions in street-art and
will come together locally to show that they never forgot where they came
from.
—————————————————————
BAST is considered one of the early pioneers, his nonstop momentum has made
him an icon on the streets of New York. His posters have been seen in
movies and even in video games. He has recently shown at gallieries in L.A.,
London and Japan

Bast and Aiko have been hitting the streets together since the early FAILE
collective days, Aiko was the girl of the group and was responsible for
most of FAILE’s street work. Now branching out solo, she will be a force to be
reckoned with.

Chris Mendoza is a longtime friend of Bast and Aiko. Self made in his own
right as a founding member of the Inkheads and an influential member of the
Barnstormers, Mendoza has been involved in collaborative art making for
over a decade.

And then comes Skewville, known for their wooden sneakers tossed over
telephone wires worldwide. They have been hitting the streets since 1999
and have been developing their 3d medium ever since. Text sculptures that read
“fame game” and “HYPE” has put skewville on the “next level”, which is also
a saying they use in their work.
