Maximising over a decade of creative studio practice UK Pop Artist Lhouette sets new boundaries in a brand new body of original works, including a custom reworking of the famed Ford GT Super Car.
This new series from the studio orbits itself around the Ford GT, drawing, deconstructing and recontextualizing elements into new works of original art that in turn form a brand new skin on the physical car itself. In association with world famous automotive and social media personality Shmee-150, the studios flagship representatives Wyecliffe Galleries , and Bonhams one of the world's largest and most renowned auctioneers in contemporary art and motor cars. Lhouette Studios is also uniting with the mental health charity CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) with the aim to focus on provoking conversations around men’s mental health, by reaching new art and automotive audiences and increase awareness about the importance of finding ways to manage our wellbeing everyday. The original artworks from the ‘HYPER POP’ project are set to be showcased with open previews beginning at Bonhams, New Bond Street Gallery from the 14th Oct. The online auction will run from the 6th-18th October via the Pop X Culture Sale. Proceeds from the auction will be donated to help fund CALM’s life-saving outreach and support works in preventing suicide across the UK. For more information visit www.thecalmzone.net. The first visual instalment from this campaign will hit the Goodwood Festival of Speed in partnership with Bonhams Motors & the Shmee 150 team from the 13th - 16th July 2023 for more information visit www.goodwood.com.
